I got 3 flat plates that is hung to the ceiling with 2 molly bolts. In the middle of the plates is a hole for a 3/8" all screw rod. I will cut a 3' rod into 3 sections and screw the rod in. I then go t some brackets that can screw the rod on one end. The other end I can clamp the conduit onto. All for about $10.
