- kite shape as shown in Figure 10 in which one end has a more gradual transition than the
- first distance 42 is greater than a second distance 44.
- the oval cross-section may be formed
- the cross section of the support block 16 may be formed
- the embodiment shown in Figure .5 may have a first substantially flat surface forming the first end 34 and a second substantially flat surface forming the second end 36.
- This embodiment may also have a third substantially flat surface 41 positioned on a side
- the cross section of the support block 16 may be formed
- the support block 16 may have a first end 34 and a second end 36 positioned
- the longitudinal axis 38 may be positioned between the first
- the first end 34 may be positioned proximate to a side
