• a trunk of elongate form extending between a first end and a second end, both the first end and the second end adapted to be supported separately when attached to the distal end portion of the adjustable riser;
• and
• a plurality of limbs attached to the trunk and moveable between a first position and a second position.
• wherein, when the first end of the trunk is connected to the distal end portion of the adjustable riser, the limbs are in the first position so as to be closer to horizontal than the second position, and
• wherein, when the second end of the trunk is connected to the distal end portion of the adjustable riser, the limbs are in the second position so as to be closer to vertical than the first position.
