if its an rps, i saw a realy nice set of blocks on this site somewhere that were made for rising up the rps, they were the same material and shape of the z legs.

There are some fancy ones around for the bottom of the RPS legs.

I used 2 inch thick teak and cut it around the shape of the bottom of the legs.

I have a pair of riser blocks made to fit under a RPS, they appear to be made of white starboard and I think they are 2" thick I'll get pictures and send them this weekend if you like
