Floyd Rose nut shims

What's Hot
I'm setting up my recently purchased Kramer 1984 and feel like the nut could do with being raised a smidge. I had a quick search and none of the usual suppliers, (allparts, WD, Amazon, eBay) seem to have nut shims in stock.

Does anyone know of a source for them or an alternative item I can use to raise said nut?

    Thick paper or thin card.

    I use brass sheet that can be cut using a knife or scissors

    You can also use beer cans or coke cans for shims as it can be cut easily with scissors
