Just after recommendations on places to get unistrut, studding and associated fixings from. On the rare occasion I've needed before I've gone to direct channel and they've been spot on but starting to do more of it and looking for options. Cheers
 
direct channel are the cheapest, but if you need it asap go to a local sparky merchant they should have the stuff
 
I'm just in the process of setting an account up and hopefully be squared away with some good terms.

get to know your local rep like your left arse cheek :D mines pulled me out the poo more than once
 
and sometimes they can even give you work :D
 
I cut my stud bar and strut on a ridgid bench still but if i'm cutting a lot of unistrut I get my chop saw out.

Very rare I use a grinder as I find it's more difficult and time consuming cutting my clips end to center holding a tape and a grinder & then rounding the edges off rather than using a tape and hacksaw :D

Plus me clothes end up all holely after using a grinder for a few days, add a hard day's work covered in dirt and grime, clothes all holey I end up looking like I should be holding a can of tenants and sat on a park bench lol
