Patent ID: 8353502

Claim:
An apparatus for tilting objects, comprising: a lower portion, comprising: at least one foot plate; at least three supporting walls, wherein a height of the top of the lower portion is about the height of a supporting structure; and an upper portion, comprising: a substantially flat surface; at least one connector for coupling a node carrier to the upper portion; wherein the upper portion is coupled to the lower portion, wherein the upper portion tilts relative to the lower portion between an angle about horizontal to an angle about vertical; and a node carrier comprising: a substantially flat surface; a first member and a second member extending from the flat surface at an angle about normal to a plane of the flat surface for holding a component, wherein the first member extends from the flat surface near an end opposite from where the second member extends from the flat surface, wherein the second member is on a side of the flat surface closest to the coupling between the lower portion and the upper portion; and at least one connector for coupling the flat surface to the upper portion, wherein the flat surface is coupled to the upper portion.
