So I ran over to Lowes to get materials to build this. I found the gutter stuff but the fence post isn't big enough to house the gutter. The staff dug through everything but coouldn't find any plastic fence posts that were big enough to take a gutter. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
I don't think Lowe's carries the 5x5 cover. Home Depot has the cover, HERE. Home Depot doesn't stock the symetrical gutter that's used for a tray. Gotta get the gutter at Lowe's.
What a challenge to find the fence post. Yup, Lowes discontinued carrying the 5" post sleeves. They said no one was buying them, too much slack in the sleeves to work well on fence posts; that's what they said. BUT...the company still makes them and so Lowes ordered one for me; four to six week delivery time (to Anchorage, AK). At least I can still get one, eventually.
I guess I better go ahead and buy the gutter before Lowes stops carrying them too!
I just bought the 5x5 post cover and gutter at my Lowes last night. It must be a regional thing.
