Shimble™ - Micro-Step Locking Wedges.
Ever sit down at a café table that rocks every time someone touches it?
Trying to work at a wobbly desk? Fighting with a shaky workbench, cabinet, stool, or 3D printer that never seems to sit flat no matter what you shove underneath it?
Most wedges and shims fail for one simple reason: they slide back out.
Traditional smooth wedges slowly work themselves loose from vibration, movement, foot traffic, or even just someone leaning on the table. You fix the wobble… and five minutes later it’s back.
Shimble™ fixes that problem.
Shimble™ Micro-Step Locking Wedges use a precision stepped design that naturally “locks” into position as pressure is applied. Instead of relying on a smooth angled surface that can creep sideways, the micro-steps resist slipping and help keep the wedge securely in place.
“Restaurant patio tables, workshop benches, folding chairs, hotel desks. Once you carry Shimbles, you start noticing wobble everywhere.”
Just slide a Shimble™ under the unstable leg until the wobble disappears. The stepped profile helps it settle into the ideal height quickly and securely.
Small enough to fit in a pocket, purse, backpack, toolbox, or glove compartment, Shimble™ is designed to go anywhere unstable furniture exists — from outdoor restaurants and cafés to workshops, garages, offices, hotels, dorm rooms, campsites, and maker spaces.
Why People Love Shimbles
Stops Wobble Fast:
Quickly stabilize shaky tables, desks, stools, shelves, workbenches, cabinets, appliances, and more.
Micro-Step Locking Design:
Unlike smooth wedges that slide loose over time, Shimble™ uses tiny stepped increments that help resist sideways movement and vibration.
Great for Restaurants & Travel:
Outdoor café tables and uneven patio seating are notorious for wobbling. Shimble™ is an easy everyday-carry fix.
Perfect for Workshops & Makerspaces:
- 3D printers
- small machines
- workbenches
- tool carts
- electronics stations
- hobby tables
- Lightweight & Portable
3D printed from durable lightweight material so they’re easy to carry anywhere.
Easy to Remove:
Integrated finger grips make retrieval quick and easy when it’s time to pack up and go.
Includes Protective Carry Case:
Nobody wants to toss a floor wedge directly into a purse or pocket after using it at a restaurant. The included storage case keeps everything contained and clean during transport.
Included in Each Snap-Lock Case Kit:

Protective travel/storage case
The two sizes make it easy to handle everything from tiny furniture adjustments to larger gaps and heavier items. You get two complete kits with each purchase, that’s 8 total wedges.
Small Tool. Surprisingly Useful.
Shimble™ is one of those tiny tools you don’t realize you need until the moment something starts wobbling — and then you end up using it everywhere.

A Note From the Maker
Every item you’ll find here is imagined, designed, beta-tested, and made by us — right in our own little workshop. We don’t buy things to resell; we create them from scratch, one small batch at a time. Each piece is built, hand-finished, and assembled with care before it makes its way to you. Every piece carries its own subtle character — a blend of digital precision and human touch that makes each one uniquely yours.
Every now and then, we come across something out in the wild that’s simply too clever to ignore — something beautifully simple that deserves a second look. When that happens, we can’t resist rolling up our sleeves and tweaking it just a little, refining proportions, smoothing details, or adding our own finishing touches. In those cases, we proudly credit the original maker and share what we’ve changed, because great ideas deserve both gratitude and evolution.
Many of our products are patented, and most are trademarked — the result of months of invention, iteration, and a deep love of making things that didn’t exist before. When you purchase from Gnobby Gnome Whatnots™, you’re not just buying a product — you’re supporting a maker’s dream, and taking home something you won’t find anywhere else.

We do our best to ship every order as quickly as possible. If your item is in stock, it will ship right away. If not, we’ll build it for you — each piece is made in the order it’s received.
