I was able to get some of this 8020 style extrusion framing for free. But I can't seem to identify the manufacture. It is 90mm x 90mm. It is not 8020.
Does anyone know who makes

you could make it yourself without too much trouble.

call an aluminum extruder, give them a CAD file, have them cut a die, and you are off to the races extruding as many lengths as you want.

its that easy. Thats why, it would be very hard for anyone to tell you who makes it. though due to the complexity of it, it probably came from one of the bigger, more capable extrusion outfits. could have some IP attached to the geometry as well.
 
Thank you DBronson that is exactly what this is...

While those are clearly designed for structural purposes (the T-slots are for connections), I have seen those used as well as heat dissipators on electronic components. Just to give an out-of-the-box idea...

The extrusion in your pic sure looks sturdy. Given for free? Lucky you!
