Nelson Wood ShimsCSBP56 Csh8/56/120/Mgd 8'' Bulk Contractor

Despite the representation that these are made of cedar, including a photograph of a box marked “cedar” shims, these are pine. They are not light colored cedar, they are pine. This misrepresentation is very disappointing. A classic bait and switch.

Shims work well, they are shims, I dont care if they are balsam or fir, they are shims, and at a good price for something that needs shipping. Yeah, you can get cheaper in store, but not bad price for online and delivery.

The the box once said "cedar" .....and then, apparently after complaints, the silkscreen was edited to Beddar.Look, they work....I really don't absolutely need cedar (although in some places cedar would have been nice).If you just want to shim something and pine is OK, these will work.

I use these wood shims for my thickness planer when I need to flatten a board that is not straight. Photos attached. I couldn't find the type of shims i was looking for in the big box store so I ordered them here on Amazon. I read where someone claimed his shims were not cedar. Although for my use it doesn't matter since I only use them for actual shimming. I like that you get a lot of wood shims for a little money. These should last for years for me since I will be reusing most of the shims and not discarding after every use. These are exactly what i was looking for. 5 stars

Lied about product! I need cedar so the shims do not rot. I paid for cedar and got cheap pine shims
