Each side branch member is attached to a front frame and extends from the front frame at a downward and outward angle and connects to each side frame member. Each center branch member is attached to the front frame and extends from the front frame at a downward and inward angle and connects to a first end of the center frame thereby forming a first Y-joint. The connection of the side branch and the center branch to the front frame form a pair of second Y-joints.
