Re: Machine Shop Wiring Job.


I like the fact that you made the unistrut longer than you needed, for future runs. I don't how long your overhead's are but we used to tie them together with unistrut & clamps, and if needed, threaded rod from this unistrut to a unistrut mounted on the ceiling with uni-nuts.......... Mike

you wouldn't want to make all those bends in 1 1/4" with a one shot....that's where you need a chicago or hydraulic...
