- a plurality of first support members extending substantially adjacent each side of said center longitudinal axis of said base member, with said first support members being attached to said base member;
- each one of said plurality of first support members having a top edge which is vertically higher at an end of each one of said plurality of first support members furthest away from said center longitudinal axis than an end of each one of said plurality of first support members closest to said center longitudinal axis;
- a support surface on each one of said plurality of first support members extending from the end of each one of said plurality of first support members furthest from said center longitudinal axis to the end of each one of said plurality of first support members closest to said center longitudinal axis;
- and
- each surface of each one of said plurality of first support members being serrated.
