Abstract

A brace includes two or more spacers connected together using an interlocking mechanism, such as a press fit, an interference fit, a friction fit, a snap fastener, a projection-and-recess coupling system or a stud-and-tube coupling system, to provide a desired combined length. The brace may further include a U-shaped clip for attachment to a toilet tank or may use a plate with an adhesive layer for attachment to an object. The brace may also include a threaded stud and a nut coupled to a spacer for adjusting the combined length of the brace.
