Pole Saw to Gutter Rake Conversion

Step 2: Determine Gutter Width

Measure the rain gutter. You need to know how wide your gutter is so your rake will fit in it. Write this down. The width of the gutter may also influence your choice of what you use for a base and how you lay out the tines. For instance I choose to use the narrowest part of my gutter as a cut-off point to insure the tines would fit in the gutter.

Knowing the depth might be helpful as well this way you can make the tines long enough to reach the bottom. I didn't do this. I figured I would be using the rake at angle and depth wouldn't matter as much.
