Anybody else here use playing cards for shims?

That will work perfectly when I start on my fence because I am going to use my router as a jointer. I’ll have .010” removal on each pass; I’m going to purchase a deck of cards. Should I get a deck with the girly pictures on the cards? ;-0

Use them to shim the gap around false drawer fronts when locating to attach to the drawer box.
When crosscutting on the table saw, I will place a card(s) between the fence stop and work piece instead of unlocking the stop and moving it.

If you put a rubberband around the whole deck or two you can use them for cheap but accurate profile gauge

Used them when I moved the friends SLATE pool table, works great.
