Too bad you're not here ... I have three perfect, red oak wedges left over
from tapering four chair legs this afternoon.

Hate to toss them ... you never know when a shim will come in handy.


I have so many small pieces of "stuff", plus other various "stuff". If I
toss it, I generally need it within 72 hours, no matter if I have had it
laying around here for ten years.

I have even considered having these made of steel.
