Funny that you mentioned that, because I was thinking the same thing. Providing you can do it Consistently so that they are all the same thickness to each other and all the way around the shims. I thought of sweating them, getting the solder to flow and while the solder is still molten to use a cylinder to weight them down flat and flush together.

I'm not sure if its really worth the effort though, the other thought I had was to use a spray contact cement on the mating surface of both shims and carefully bring them together then press to ensure a 100% bond
