Shims can be used for any item that needs variable spacers. They are
especially useful for shimming furring.
| 
Determine the greatest projection (bump out in the wall).
This will determine the face of your furring and panels.
It is important to know exactly where you want your face to furring before you
start.| After laying out your furring horizontally, start the installation of
the furring systems by nailing the furring straight into position, without
panel adhesive. This allows the furring to be adjusted in and out.
| 
Use a level, shims, and glue to screw and lock the far left and right sides of
the furring into place. This provides level work surfaces to straighten the
middle of the furring.| Place ¾” thick blocks on the far left and right sides
of the furring that are fixed and leveled. Pull a tight string line between
the blocks.
| Using
a 3rd ¾” thick block, work down the line, one stud at a time to level, shim,
glue, and screw the furring permanently into place.
