why is one side completely open like that (asides from manufacturing process)?
i would feel safer if it was closed 360 degrees.
the top portion to relieve weight off the rail is a good idea, but that's what a hocky puck with slit does, or in my case, a narrower jack stand with rubber padding... or even my slit of oak.
these are made in the USA, i hope? not china where manufacturing consistency is sometimes non-existent.
just wondering who is behind supporting the 3200lbs+ over my head.
