The spring loaded nuts cost a bomb here in Australia so I ended up making them out of some 1/4" thick flat stock. the spring is not necessary because the angle iron cross pieces are rarely if ever removed from the rails.

Since I made my mill I've stumbled across a heap of 14 gauge including the nuts and one of the fellas at the tree loppers yard backed a forklift into one of my sets of mill rails twisting one side of the rials quite badly. I use pieces of unistrut often in my home shop especially for things like jigs and prototyping. Also

This is a CO2 cylinder holder I made from 14 gauge that allows the cylinder to be easily inverted for decanting the CO2 into smaller CO2 cylinders for soda makers.

Here's another use of the HD stuff.

I would love to dress up my axe heads on that belt. That is a fine modification! I'll make sure to purchase some extra to do just that!
 
Picked up my lumber from the kiln. All of it warped and twisted. I think he tossed it on top of the stacks. Charged $1 per board foot
