I'd personally just use the full size shim and fit it to the pin after I solder it using a piece of correctly sized drill rod or dowel wrapped in sandpaper. You can use candle soot to see where high points are.

EDIT: By "correctly sized" I mean pin size or less WITH the paper on it, of course, and 400-800 grit paper, not the stuff for woodworking.

Take care,
Chaz
