80/20
If you’re into ShopNotes Magazine and enjoyed building with an Erector Set as a kid then chances are you’ll enjoy the 80/20 website.
The 80/20 company has a product line that they call “The Industrial Erector Set.” Basically it’s a framing system that uses T-slotted extruded aluminum tubes and bolt on connectors. But, that is an oversimplification because there are thousands of different parts and variations available which makes the system highly adaptable for applications such as machine frames, automation, furniture, lineal motion, displays, and (to borrow from their catalog) “modular anything.”
So, visit the 80/20 website and think of all the cool stuff you could build for your shop!
