Just curious about getting some shim stock to have around the shop. Does anyone sell like a multi-pack with different sizes. When I was younger it was common for the local hardwares to have it around. Thanks , Richard

McMaster-Carr and other tool places sell 1/2 by 12" feeler gauge strips. They ought to make good shim stock.

I get mine from T W Metals in Atlanta. 3 foot by 2 foot sheet of laminated shim stock made of stainless steel. I have some rolls of .005, .010 and .020 brass and stainless that I bought from a hardware store.
