Does anyone have any ideas about how to affix a gutter to a metal

Im desperate. Gorilla glue?


I assume this is a downspout, not an open gutter?


Use the metal straps sold for affixing the downspout to the structure
and screw them to the pole using #8 self drilling tapping, stainless,
sheetmetal screws.

OR

You could use UV resistant, high quality zip ties / tiewraps.

OR

You could use stainless steel bailing wire wrapped around the downspout
and pole and then twisted behind the pole.


Personally, I would probably give the tiewraps a shot, using a color
that blends in with the downspout. Quick and easy.


I have doubts about the long term use of tie wraps. They would
probably age out rather quickly. The metal downspout straps
are probably the best solution.
