Nelson Wood Shims - Pack of 84 Bundle, 8-inch, Made with Beddar Wood, Premium Performance, Packaging, Indoor/Outdoor Use, All Natural

Some of the shims have a pointy edge like the should but a lot of them are somewhat thick at the point edge. Better to get siding shingles and cut the to size.

I kind of love and hate these shims. Lol. On one hand, they are very hard and rigid...much more so than either standard cedar or plastic. This is a definite plus in terms of durability. On the other hand, they dont break off easily. This makes them a little more difficult to work with. This is the only reason I deducted one star. In the final analysis, though, durability is probably the more important factor when constructing something thats intended to last. All in all, this is a good product.

Its a box of wood shims. They are wood, and they shim. I use shims regularly on a number of different projects at home so this box will be great. I wont be worried about running out of shims for awhile.

The wood from the Beddar tree seems nicer than the average-tree shim I normally use. Knot and split free, and that can make a difference when you are putting in doors, windows, ....whatever it is you want to be closer than average. Nice that they are in a box - chasing loose shims around is a nuisance also. If you do enough work of the type needing shims, dont hesitate to put this box in stock and not have to run to the big box store at the last minute.

Good pack of shims. Easy to break. It says rot and split resistant on the box.

This 84-pack of 8-inch shims comes in a box that can be continued to use for storage as you are using the shims. This is a bonus compared to plastic wrap that when opened you have a bunch of loose shims all around. The shims are a standard size you would expect unless you were looking for door shims. These are contractor grade shims and are comparable to what I used in the past. The angle on them is good. The shims go to taper to a height between 1/4+ to 5/16. Most of the shims measured to 7-13/16. I did count 84 shims in the box as well. If you need shims, this is a decent set.

I had an idea to use wooden shims for roofing on one of my paintings. They are perfect. The wood can be stained, trimmed...whatever I want. Perfect...five stars.

I got these to use on projects around the house. The quality is good, and the box is nice to keep them stored neatly. They do the job they are intended to, and I wont run out anytime soon.

Well made and good size. These are good quality shims from good wood and made in America.

The headline almost says it all, people. For those of you out there who are unaware, my husband is a commercial cabinetmaker. He uses a lot of shims. A LOT of shims. So, when it comes to them, he knows what he’s talking about. When I told him his shims had arrived, he just kind of shrugged and acknowledged me. A few hours went by, when out of nowhere, I heard him exclaim, “These are really good shims,” and he has since told me more than once I “need to give those shims a really good review.” So, here it is, people. A really good review of these shims. Which brings me to the… Bottom line: hubby is impressed, and he does not impress easily. Highly, highly recommended.
