The slope of a gutter to the downspout should drop 1 inch for every 20 feet of run. A downspout would be very simple to make as well just simply glue in two end caps and a 3 x3 x1 5 tee to your 3 pvc pipe. Diy stores sell special paint for gutters and downpipes if the manufacturer s pvc colour is not suitable. Make sure your pipe is cut to the correct length before applying any of the adhesive as it bonds joints very quickly.

They say it can t be done but it sure can just watch and see. Apply pvc cement to the outside of each end of the cut pipe and to the inside of the elbow and adapter. Cut a piece of pvc pipe to that measurement. Quickly insert one end of the pipe into the adapter and the remaining end into the elbow and allow the cement to set.

Use pvc cement to connect whole unsplit pipe using lengths of pipe joined by couplers. Then cut the top 1 3 to 1 2 of top of the pipe off. They cut a narrow slit along the length of the pipe just wide enough for the corrugations to fit inside the pipe.

Pvc pipe that is 4 inches or more in diameter can be split lengthwise and used as a simple homemade alternative to a gutter. Build the entire gutter system and cement it together before splitting the pipe and couplers to create two halves. Install the gutter and run your 1 5 downspout with 90 degree or 45 degree depending on your configuration.
