Some members have posted using blue masking tape ?
I haven't tried this yet!

Bob, Can't imagine masking tape lasting very long. Harry's way of using brass shim seams to be a great short term solution....maybe even a long term solution as long as having the shim in there doesn't bother the owner.

I agree doesn't seem like it would last, but the poster remarked that he got over a year out of it hunting.
Glad to hear the mother load was dropped south of here.
