Abstract: An embodiment device includes a clamp body having a clamp opening, an extension opening and a traverse block having an internally threaded portion, a reaction plate having a recess in a first face at a first side of the reaction plate and one or more pins disposed in the recess extending away from the first face, and further having an extension extending along a long axis of the reaction plate through the extension opening, and bearing blocks disposed on a second side of the reaction plate opposite the first side, where the traverse block is disposed between the bearing blocks. An actuator is aligned parallel to the long axis of the reaction plate and extending through each of the bearing blocks and through the traverse block, and the actuator has an eternally threaded portion engaged with the internally threaded portion of the clamp body.

Abstract: A device is provided. The device includes a first pillar. The first pillar includes a bottom portion having an opening. The first pillar further includes a top portion coupled to the bottom portion by a middle portion. The top portion includes a plurality of shelves stacked along a common axis intersecting the bottom portion. Each of the shelves has a respective recess. The first pillar further includes a plurality of clamps. Each of the shelves has a respective clamp of the clamps. Each respective clamp and respective recess of the shelves forms an airfoil cross-sectional shape. The first pillar further includes a plurality of locks. Each of the shelves has a respective lock of the locks. Each of the locks has a first locking portion on respective shelves and a second locking portion on respective clamps of the shelves.
