The connectors (20,22) desirably include respective mating interengageable components located on the plates near the ends thereof. The components are configured and adapted to cooperate to interconnect the members (10a,10b) and maintain the ends of the respective plates (12a,12b) in substantial abutting relationship with the plates (12a,12b) in substantial alignment. The members (10a,10b) may ideally be arranged as a neat packet of related objects including a pair of elongated members (10a,10b) configured, arranged, aligned and joined together so as to present a single elongated construct having an open interior.
