Hi Guys,  I am in need of finding a place to buy copper halfround gutters does anyone know of a supplier in northwest New Jersey? Or east PA?  I bought them along time ago but I can't remember where I got them before.  Thanks in advance..

    Aetna has them, I justed quoted them for my garage in copper and galvanized, maybe they have other branches in NY or NJ.

Be careful. Alot of copper gutters around here have been walking off of buildings and cashing themselves into local scrap yards.  All of this without owners knowledge or permission, if you know what I mean.

I was surprised to see that Home Depot carries them.  They are special order and I can't speak for their quality, but I saw them there and thought I'd pass it on.

Stumpy I tried Home Depot by me but they knew nothing... Fortunately one of their customers did know something ;-)

Classic Gutters   in Kalamazoo Mich  has then mail order ifd you can't find any local.   I have them for my house only I went with the aluminum for half the price of copper.

If it was for my house I would do the aluminum, but this is for my customer a historical house of which I am doing an addition so I have to stick with what is on the original house.

I did find copper gutters local.  Thanks Don for your input.

I would screw them on and epoxy over the heads to force people to spend the time cutting them off.

Speaking of epoxy I need to use some to secure down the sill beams on the house addition I am doing.. I am not too familiar with epoxy.. What kind do I use and how exactly do I use this stuff?  Can you fill me in?  Thanks!

Sorry, the only epoxy I use is JB Weld and fiberglass stuff. I know many modern building are held together with that and caulk. It is about the only thing holding windows in for many high rises and such.

But,  after seeing that concrete slab fall off in the Boston tunnel and crush a car flat and a woman to death, I still would not use epoxy to hold anything heavy overhead if that is what you intend it's use.

No Rebocardo,  I only plan to use it to screw into a wall frame on a post and beam job. Everything is already on the ground. It's the bottom sill I plan to screw down into the foundation wall. Just to make sure the walls never slide in or out.
