Folding “T” Patch
 
A special prefabricated folding “T” patch was developed for use over relatively small holes. The stock of the “T” was threaded and fitted with a washer and nut. A board and pillow, each with a hole in the center, would slide over the stock. The assembly could be folded, pushed through the hole, and tightened on the inside to secure to a stanchion when the patch was installed.
