No, using a guide that hangs out of Base, even before the start, is

NOT allowable.



See Rule 14:  Aiming – You may use a device to aim the robot, but its

use must be completely in Base at all times, and you must let go of it

prior to starting/restarting.



There are LEGO pieces that are 2 studs wide, of course.
