I did some research on Unistrut and it appears it was invented sometime in the
1930's and released to the world in 1940.

It's a pity everything you touch these days seems to be part of the
multi-national Tyco.


At least I got it for free, for a couple years. A large, local
electrical contractor 'Let me' haul off the scrap conduit and hardware
so he didn't have to pay to send it to the landfill. I used a lot of the
scrap in projects, and wads of cash by selling the used 3" & 4" rigid
conduit to a small welding shop. I still have some new aluminum conduit
in my pipe rack. If it was heavier, I'd make a cool, polished aluminum
ladder rack for my pickup truck. With a few modifications, I could use
it to lift my power chair into the bed, too.
