Not that I'm aware of, but the shims aren't for alignment anyway. They're for height adjustment. For alignment, you sort through agraffes until you find one that screws in and bottoms out at the alignment angle you want before final tightening. >It's hard >to think that that level difference would be any more extreme than >the natural variation in agraffe manufacturing.
