I'm working on building an adjustable wooden ground mount for solar panels and I've noticed that strut rails can be really pricey. I'm curious if there are any types of brackets available that can be screwed into wooden rails to hold the panels securely. I've come across some Z brackets intended for RV roofs, but I'm looking for advice from anyone who's made something similar. Has anyone had experience with this?

I built my own ground mount using wooden trusses with 2x6 girts. I used regular clamps designed for aluminum rails but fixed them with wood lag screws. For my next project, I'm planning to drill through and use bolts instead. Check out these clamps [here](https://a.co/d/2KoTuBs); they worked well for me!
Do you have any pictures of your mounting setup? Would love to see it in action!
Yes, I did something similar and those clamps worked great for my pressure treated lumber setups! Would love to see how it turned out for you.
