What can I do? Open to suggestions...

you need a small shim about .5mm thick to clear the gpu mounting shim.

[Bigchrome]

Any ideas as to where to find one?? I was thinking about this in a restauraunt today where they had copper tables....:)

[Bigchrome]

Ok, so I found a metalworking shop where I can have a shim made...But I think I will just Buy a pot to fit the 2900! Who is making them?

I already bought this pot from him and don't like it... I have PM'd him already but I want to keep my options open.
