A joint system including a support device with a plurality of radial extensions extending in at least a first direction from the support device, each individual radial extension of the plurality of radial extensions terminating at a distal engagement end and a receiving device separate from the support device with a notch area to receive the distal engagement ends of each radial extension of the plurality of radial extensions and a contact area upon which a length of the radial extensions of the plurality of radial extensions engage when the distal engagement end of each radial extension of the plurality of radial extensions are engaged within the notch area. At least one radial extension of the plurality of radial extensions is configured to be flexible between a first position to provide for at least one of assembly and disassembly of the support device to the receiving device and a second position when the support device and the receiving device are assembled.
