FMC? http://www.fmc.com/ ? !



From reading briefly about FMC, Rigid (EMT) is preferred. So I am
drawing up an EMT solution to pass in front of your critical eyes.

What I actually read is that, preferably, FMC is used in lengths of no
more than 24". Comments welcome.


I thought you might use it to go from the ceiling to the wall.


I'm having a "big time" doing my conduit bends in SketchUp! : )


Got a bender yet? 1/2" emt is easy to work with. Go with light gauge
wire and I think you can use it. Consult your NEC.

Hell, you'll get this thing done by Easter if you keep going!

P.S: Prime and paint the furring strips and emt before putting them
up. Clean emt and fittings with lacquer thinner on a rag and it will
take off the machining oils.
