Installed BT3000 shim set outside of saw enclosure

I had a customer on EBay complain that the flay shims were 0.1″ too long and that they would not work in his saw. The pictures below show that not only are they just fine, they will no impeded the travel either way of the arbor because the arbor’s travel is limited and there is plenty of room to have even longer flat or angled shims. The pictures below show the arbor moved to each extreme.
