A device for use in tissue repair procedures, a surgical tissue repair procedure, and a method of making the device. Fasteners connected between the top and bottom plates secure them to the step member. Various embodiments allow a needle to be passed from the magnetic detection sensing device outside the patient toward a magnetic gastrostomy tube inside the patient or, alternatively, from the magnetic gastrostomy tube inside the patient toward the magnetic detection sensing device outside the patient. The mounting ring retains a shower actuator that is to be aligned with a piping apparatus. The present process comprises an esterification of a polyol, such as propylene glycol, and a fatty acid ester, such as a vegetable oil fatty acid methyl ester, in the presence of a catalyst and borohydride, wherein a polyol ester having a Lovibond color below about 0. A rigid straw is mounted on the container and has opposed ends with one of the ends having a sharp, lance-like tip located within the beverage bag receiving space and the other end extending away from the insulating container.
