Hi,
Someone not to long ago had a similar problem. Not being able to keep the
topper on straight. Please forgive me for not remembering whom to give
credit to, but here was their suggestion....they said to tie a long piece of
curling ribbon or monofilament line to the topper nub, this line should be
almost as long as the height of the conduit. Attach a fishing weight to the
end of the line(or attach something else with a bit of weight, but would
also fit down inside the conduit). Drop the weighted line down the inside of
the conduit and it should hold your head on straight. Hope you get the idea,
it does work! Thanks again to whomever gave this idea to us not long ago.
