Abstract:
An apparatus comprising:(a) a first element, said first element's width narrowing along said first element's thickness axis;(b) a second element having a cavity and an opening exposing said cavity, said first element shaped to fit at least partially into said cavity, said cavity width narrowing along said cavity's depth axis;(c) said first element's width axis parallel to said cavity's width axis, said first element's thickness axis parallel to said cavity's depth axis; and(d) a modular block mounted to said second element, said modular block coupled to said first element such that said first element's smallest width is larger than said cavity's smallest width in a region where said first element is pressed against said cavity, said modular block having at least one neighboring modular block such that said neighboring modular block and said modular block are in fluid communication.
