Title: Gutters, downpipes etc
Post by: Tigger on June 30, 2008, 21:29
Anybody know where I can get half-round or square box guttering, hoppers, downpipes and fittings?  Preferably whitemetal?

I have a feeling that Scale Link may have done them in the past, though I'm not sure if they still do.

The other way of doung it is to make them out of foil - not the stuff you'd wrap the roast in, but the thicker stuff that usually forms the trays sold by Chinese takaways (and some oven-ready stuff from the supermarket).

Ah, yes, many thanks.  My supply of Scale Link guttering is dwindling so if I can't find any more I'll go down the tin foil pipe.  You've reminded me that one of the Pendon team produced a book on Cottage Modelling for Pendon and I seem to remember there was a section on guttering and pipes etc.

Always a good excuse to get a takeaway Chinese or Indian.  As if I needed one...

If you are prepared to use plastic instead of whitemetal then the Wills building sheets of gutters and downpipes is excellent

They are indeed white metal, I use these and I am very happy with them, they also do junctions for the downpipes, and other stuff that finished the models off well. They also come with moulded brackets.

I like the PECO gutters and down pipes which come with their 'Manyways' buildings. They do a set of window frames and gutters but again if you need loads they are expensive and you end up with thousands of window frames and doors too.. still if you need gutter you must need windows too I suppose.
