I thought you were going to cut the hole in your cornhole boards too large...

Got about 3 pictures in and asked myself why the fuck I was scrolling. By the time I got to the end I was damn impressed. Well played.

(I still think this is supposed to divert to a French drain)

Does that downspout type make a lot of noise in moderate to heavy rain? Also do they attract mosquitoes since it doesn’t drain?

Rain chains, they're really neat to watch

5 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Only had moderate rain so far, sounds like a gurgling brook. Each cup drains at the bottom so no standing water for bugs

They're called 'rain chains'. We have them on all of our downspouts & they make a nice burbling sound at most. You can find beautiful ones!

They don’t even work like a gutter downspout needs to in tornado alley thunderstorms, and whatever noise they do make is drowned out by wind

I’ll try to post a video of the downspout

Great minds Doriss! Last weekend I installed a rain barrel on the other side of my house!

I too like diverting rain 4 feet to the side.

Just far enough for the grade to take over and get the water away from my house.

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

What is it for? Never seen one and can't figure out if it is just a pretty thing or it has a purpose?

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

It’s so that the water coming off the roof doesnt hit the ground where it would dig a hole. It diverts it to whatever direction it’s pointed

5 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

But I do like it though!

5 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Thanks! called a splash block. It catches the water from the rain chain and sends its out of my flower beds to where the ground slopes away

It’s a whole new way to play, just have to keep drinking until it makes sense

Huh, rain diverter? Do that's what those are called.

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Apparently they are call splash blocks. The more you know

Next step is a lovely little rain garden that your beautiful diverter feeds into!. It'll be a rare drop of water that escapes your property!
