However, I couldn't find the FAST shims on the Carter Products website (their products are good, but their website is poorly designed) so I got these and filed a groove in the plastic to make room for the offset teeth."
"I’ve used this set of gauges far more than I thought I would."
"Really does make saw set-up (blades distances) a breeze and accurate."
"Works well, like the a lot."
"It does what I want it to do."

"Perfect for shimming around the 3/4" bolts I am using."
"i needed thin but stackable shims and no compression..these were perfect,thanks."
