Sorry, thought you could get a feeling for it from the pics.

Length of guttering: 16cm

Height of drainpipes: 9cm and 11cm

Have been very busy putting slate roofs on church but finally got round to start the guttering. And here is the cottage with it's guttering on. Not quite as planned but still pleased.

(Tongue in cheek) Hope it's well glued on - at that angle it could just come off!

Well, only three other possibilities available to show the pic left :lol: I´d be more concerned about getting the rain water to flow through the pipes.

But seriously, I now need to get back to my little slate station, where the lack of guttering is keeping me awake at nights :? Well, just a litttle ... ;)

Brian Goldswain is inviting interest in brass half-rounded guttering for 16mm/ft or similar. He is to forward interest to the guy considering making some more before he retires. Don't know about future supply.
If enough interest the guy will consider starting production.

This will be 500mm lengths of approx 1/4" tube split lenthways.

The guttering in question will be £4.00 a length with postage in UK £3 up to a kilo.

I've already sent my interest. Others interested should contact
briangoldswain@btinternet.com
who will then forward the numbers.
If all goest to plan orders will be made to the producer and not Brian.

Good luck
Regards
