For those of you who use 8020 (ChaCHING!) for building jigs and
such,
check out the prices at Orange. Better than eBay pricing!

I've been eyeing the strut that HD sells for light structural use,
like a temporary stock rack. Has anyone used it for beams, columns,
shelf supports?


Which, SUPERSTRUT? Methinks it's too light for your suggested uses.
It's for hanging lightweight electrical conduit runs and such. 12ga

I used Sterling HD shelf brackets for my lumber racks, good for about
#300 per bracket. Looking at them, I think they're probably 12ga,
too. http://tinyurl.com/njedkau and http://tinyurl.com/p42hbw6
