verticalpro's lockblock would be great but as far as i can tell it doesnt exist yet, like 1/2 their other stuff.

And TreeMachines stuff LOL

At least two versions of the Lock Block have been prototyped. Nothing in production though.

School I taught at had a dozen or so portawraps, and 3-4 Verticalpros.

Nobody like the vert. pros and they would only get used it left over. Generally less convenient to use.

Which version of the FOS did you have? The one with several loops on both ends or the one with just the vertical pins?

The angled back pins. None with 'loops' at the ends, as far as I can interpret.
