  • 3/4" or 1" EMT..... and..... Where did you get your connectors

    Snow is right around the corner so I'm finally getting around to putting up the new screen.

    I'm currently am 3/4" EMT across the ceiling and hanging the screen from it. I have very little side connections. With the new screen I'd like to build an EMT cage so I have more places to attach the sides of the screen to get a flatter look.

    Question are:

    Should I be using 1" EMT ? seems like the 3/4" works "ok" but may need to be a little more rigid.

    Also, (either way) where is the best place to get the connectors from ? (If you feel like sharing I'd also like to see/hear about your set up.

      Great website. thank you. for sharing. I notice some heavy duty tarps on the website, any insight on using the heavy duty 8oz tarp for sidewall protection in the enclosure? I'm trying to find a cost-effective option to keep my walls safe. Thanks in advance

          The 1 inch is a must. You can get the pipe insulation as well fairly cheap. That will prevent the errant shot from hitting the EMT and then bouncing all over your hitting area. I speak from experience!

          I agree 1 inch. My connectors came from cimarron but by the looks of it I should have gone with tarps.com. Oops! $$
