Abstract: A guide device is provided that includes a base portion defining a platform and a tab, and a support member positioned between the platform and the tab and extending upwardly. In one form, the tab defines a continuous series of profiled geometric surfaces at an intersection between the tab and the support member, and the platform is adapted to receive an external component for stabilization. In another form, the tab defines at least one profiled geometric surface. The present disclosure further provides an assembly that includes an object having a ground interface and a guide device.
