that what this is, a temporary, robust item that you clamp on, like the 25g erection gin poles. clamp, lift, detach, repeat i just want it made out of mtows i like mtows, I have a picture of a milwaukee bag filled with them, if i wasnt so cheap to pay the ten cents at walgreens i would have printed that picture out to keep in my wallet next to the pictures of my kids. If I had room on the couch, i would sleep with the mtows at night
