Try this Tony (scroll down), all types of shims including brass. You gotta love Ebay!

Sorry about the long web address - just cannot figure out how to abbreviate it :oops:

Barry, go to this thread where I explain it in the first post:
http://www.romanarmy.com/rat/viewtopic.php?t=13414

You can't do it using Quick Reply (well, you can, but it's messy). You should click the normal Post Reply button.

Thanks for that Jim, I have a bad habit of hitting quickreply, so it is good to know!

Hi Tony. I have most times got shim brass from Holme Dodsworth, they have large stocks in their depot at Byker. They carry most guages, from 5thou up to 10 thouand so on. If you contact me I would have to give you directions to get there.
