Good afternoon, I actually prefer Unistrut for this. I've built all sorts of useful things, from shelves. to frames for silk-work, from bridges to outdoor (geodesic) bath-houses, from wire-tracks through machine racks with it. Very easy to configure or reconfigure, very solid design, and lots of people carry the bits, Amazon, McMaster Carr, and unistrut themselves. <A HREF="unistrut.com"> http://unistrut.com </A> with sales offices all over the world. It's a bit heavy, but it's solid, durable, off-the-shelf, bunch of different materials and easily available. Need some tools to assemble, but nothing beyond a DYI ability.
And yes, like "GridBeam" all you need is a good photograph, so you can count the holes, there is no moop, unless you drop your bolts or the like, it can collapse down quite flat, depending on your design, and is designed to be structural, with many different pieces available for corners, angles, attachments, etc. Percy On Mon, 2012-09-24 at 00:29 -0700, Gavin Harkness wrote: > If your looking for a simple framing system, have you seen square > tubing systems like these guys sell: > > http://www.speedframesystems.co.uk/index.php > > There is plenty of suppliers (even B&Q have a cheap version) and > probably be significantly cheaper than wood. > > On Sunday, September 23, 2012 11:05:49 AM UTC+1, Vinay Gupta wrote: > Gridbeam needs automation: it's a product, a feedstock, not > something that is really sensible to DIY,. any more than it's > sensible to make your own plywood! > > V> > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "hexayurt" group. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msg/hexayurt/-/DRQvvtEpq8wJ. > To post to this group, send email to hexayurt@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to hexayurt > +unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/hexayurt?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group.
