    Default Shims to fix old chair

    I have some old chairs that I have re-glued over time but eventually they keep falling apart.
    A friend of mine gave me this little gizmo. These are essentially metal shims which are dented (a bit like fish hooks). Problem is, he only has a few left and he forgets where he bought them.
    Anybody here has a clue where I can find these (online)?
    Here are some photos, also showing how they are used.

    Hi Mate.
    I would not worry about those shims.
    Use, thickened Epoxy glue instead.
    Available from any marine dealer.
