- a. a first series of members in parallel spaced relationship extending transversely of said support;
- b. a second series of members in parallel spaced relationship extending longitudinally of said support and adjustably mounted to said first members, selected one of said second members being shiftable longitudinally of said support;
- c. a first adjustable fixed stop mounted along one end of said first members extending longitudinally of said support and parallel to said second members;
- d. a second stop mounted along the other end of said first members parallel to said first stop and said second members and shiftable in directions toward and away from said first stop;
- e. means for shifting said second stop;
- f. a plurality of stud locators adjustable and fixed to said second members;
- and
- g. means to shift said selected ones of said second members;
- whereby studs are located between selected ones of said stud locators and are locked into position when the shiftable ones of said second members are shifted, and whereby the studs and track members are locked in their respective panel positions whenever said second stop is shifted toward said first stop.
