What I have done in the past for shim adjustment is if you are lucky and your shim is too thin I just keep gluing lens paper to the shim using crazy glue and weight it down until it hardens, cut out the shim check if its thick enough and repeat until you reach the correct thickness.
I also in the past for shims used an acid bath to cut very thin stock of brass or copper used in shimming material. coat what you don't want cut out with wax and drop in your acid bath

What I have done in the past with the K5 if you are lucky and need a thicker shim is to glue lens cleaning paper onto it with crazy glue. Pressing the paper onto the shim while sandwiched between 2 plates and let dry over night. Cut away the extra paper and test it again to see is you have reached the desired thickness. Repeat until you reach the thickness needed,
In the past I was able to order shims from pentax I don't know about now if you can
