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

After ordering this box of 84 wood shims, I dont think Ill have to buy more for a long time. I dont use wood shims that often, but its good to have a supply on hand since they are useful for a variety of purposes. These seem to be good quality shims. The only negative is that the wood is rougher than the shims I normally buy. So its more likely that you could end up with a splinter in your hand if youre not careful. You might want to wear gloves just to protect your hands when using these. But otherwise they are fine and I think this bundle is a good value considering how many you get.

As a homeowner doing a lot of DIY in my small apartment that has no right angles ever, shims are always in need to level mounted furniture, fill in gaps before spackling, and so on. I dont know if I will ever get through this massive pack of shims but I would rather have them on hand instead of constantly having to head out to a hardware store that often doesnt have them in stock! I cant speak to how split resistant they are but they do seem like better quality than the unbranded ones available at my local store.

Great addition to my shop supplies

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.

Great for leveling purposes, installing windows, doors, etc. Though I would dispute the extent to which they claim these are split resistant – they seem to me only mildly so. But these are wood shims and wood splits. If I wanted real split resistance and product uniformity, Id probably go with a plastic or composite shim.

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.

Love these shims will order more.

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 will definitely be using these for future projects. They are good quality and cut evenly.

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.
