    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    from memory .5mm is the thickest one they make.
    got me thinking why not make your own shims.
    pattern looks easy.
    search shim metal sheet.
    ebay item no 120898743299
    Material - Steel
    6 sheets 150mm x150mm
    2 x 0.05mm (0.002") thick
    2 x 0.075mm (0.003") thick
    1 x 0.15mm (0.006") thick
    1 x 0.25mm (0.010") thick
    approx $30 inc del
    Could be of use I recon
