    I like it all except those straps. I use straps cut off a scrap of downspout and 45 the edges. When I wrap it around the front of the downspout it matches the exact profile of the downspout and fully covers the connection seams. Imo it looks much nicer.

    I can help speed you on the downspout build, first without getting on the ladder, build your top right back with elbows, one screw in very top elbow…. And connect right back to 10’ pipe… from there you can check your right back length without getting on the ladder. Straps should be on the wall already…then Flip over the down spout and place the top elbow about 1 foot to 18” from the ground against the wall, then whack the pipe on the gutter… the dent is where you cut and now you have an almost perfect downspout… The key to being efficient is building downspouts before you hang gutters, so when you hang your gutter, downspout is ready and when you put your gutter hangers in near the downspout, your straps are up and downspout is sitting next to the outlet.. and this minimizes your up and down the ladder and going around the house Hope this makes sense

    So I’m hooking up a gutter from the house into a IBC water tank using the original down spouts the installer man put in. One side is ribbed the other is not. Well the down spout angle doesn’t fit the angle to put into the tank, my question is ....do all ribs need to be the same ?? Meaning we need the extra angles?? (Curved) Cause the existing angles will not fit the down spout into the tank. Please help us resolve this issue.

    Thank you for making this look easy. How would you turn it to the side of the house? I’m planning to install a deck across the back of my house. I’d like the down spout to spill on the side of my house. Will my connections hold well enough to the pipe? Are there better elbows to make turns? Like ductwork?

    Do you have to worry about the weight of the downspout on the siding? I want to redirect my downspout diagonally across the side of my house so it isn't going into my basement/neighbors basement (there's like a 2 ft gap between houses 😬). It's aluminum siding so it feels like it should be strong but I'm not sure if I also have to worry about moisture going in via the mounting?
