Nelson Wood Shims - DIY Bundle Wood Shims 8-Inch Shims, High Performance Natural Wood, 100% Kiln Dried - 1 Pack (12 Shims Total)

My hand rails are pulling apart where they meet. I used the shims to fill in the gap. Worked great.

I was desperately in need of four new chests of drawers so I lowered myself to buy cheap flat pack furniture versions of a five unit chest of drawers. Even with professional installation the drawers did not properly align enough to allow easy gliding when opening or closing them. I found adding these wood shims and gluing them in place resolved the issue somewhat. Oh yes this was a true ghetto rigged solution to my cheap chest of drawers issue. Im a fairly good ghetto engineer even though I have my really had to practice my skills in years. Unfortunately with the supply chain issues the world has one is sometimes forced to take what they can get even if the quality is substantially inferior. When one is forced one makes do. However just because one buys cheap garbage it does not mean one must settle for non-working rubbish. Sometimes with just a bit of ingenuity one can use things like these shims to restore functions ruined by cheap penny pinching shortcuts gone bad!

If your looking for a small amount of shims for a single project or to level a bookshelf, these do the job.

will look for something a bit stronger... very soft wood.

Easy to use

This was easy to use.

I needed shims to remove a bathroom mirror and it worked great! These shims are sturdy and better priced then home improvement stores. I would recommend.

Same as they have been for years

You need wooden shims in your life. Do things seem a bit off plumb? Get shims. Trying to get to that level? Shims. You can cut them to size and glue them together so they are just right. Shims, shims, shims!
