So basically you're after suggestions where to shove it?

Thinking this might look smart

That's the look I had in mind, but colour coated. That's nicely big too.

[Onoff]

A stainless pipe or gutter, near horizontal in line with the top balustrade handrails?

[Onoff]

Wider, overhanging copings and have a hidden gutter under that?

That's not big. Not what i would use. It will need a fair slope, a good outlet and a means of avoiding splashing st the entry.

I mean that’s just a free sample !!

There is a bigger option, but the rectangular ones are bigger yet, and will be easier to fix / look better?

That must have cost a fair bit to cut, package and send. They won't be making a profit from your order!  They probably expect £1000+.

Agree . I was surprised . Just expected a small sample for colour tbh .

They might be disappointed with my £150 order 🙄

I've been to the Lindab factory. Very impressive quality and processes. Robots drive around carrying stuff.  Hardly a person to be seen. They will have a robot making these for a few Euros, so you can stop feeling guilty.

 

Seriously, the most impressive thing for me was the outlets. They are made in saddleback shape by bending the plate material in both directions simultaneously. I imagined whatever  silent scream steel molecules make. In use, because the outlets are the scoop shape, they carry very much more water away than a standard rectangular outlet, hence the gutter doesn't fill so much.

Well I got this galvanised guttering .

The end cap has a special edpm end strip that lets it fit on the guttering easily - the sample is the half circle guttering .

So the sample is great .

I ordered the box guttering 

No edpm strip ; end cap simply can’t marry up to the gutter . A few emails to the company I get my answer .

You’ve got to bend the end of the gutter , get the end cap on - and then hit it 🙄

Assuming it’s anywhere near ‘on’ you then fold the seams over . Bit shit if you ask me .

Guess what - it leaks ; what a surprise!

ct1 on the inside around that ( crap ) joint should fix it .

Is it even possible to make a waterproof seamed joint like this ??? - I can’t see how .
