Abstract
Abstract Two horizontally disposed members are fastened into orifices located along the longitudinal axis of a vertical brace component. Each of the pair of horizontally disposed members are wrapped in a cushion material sufficient to enlarge the diameters of the horizontally disposed members and to form thereby an armpit rest. The horizontally disposed members are attached and detached from a plurality of holes in the vertical brace component, the holes being disposed upperwardly and downwardly along the longitudinal axis of the vertical space component.
