For the smaller thicknesses you can use a utility knife to scribe and break the shims. For the larger shims you can use a multi-tool, jigsaw or circular saw to cut them to length.
BIG ASS SHIMS ™ are designed to fit perfectly along the edge of Two By material. You can use a pneumatic staple, finish or brad nailer to attach them. You can use small nails by hand or we also recommend using Instant Power Grab.
When installing drywall, plywood, osb or waterproofing on top of BIG ASS SHIMS ™ it's important to take the thickness of your shims into consideration. For example: When installing 1/2" drywall directly to a stud it's common practice to use a 1.25" drywall screw. Let's say you use a 1/4" BIG ASS SHIM ™ then you would want to use a 1.5" drywall screw to ensure you have the proper. It's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendation to ensure your sheet good has the proper mechanical bind
