Something Practical - A Downspout

All our projects have to get water off the roof... and we typically use a downspout.
This Revit Tip guides you thru the steps to make one and install it onto the building.
You can then add a Material parameter and even several 'Types' for different roof heights.
Happy Revitting

Thank you so much!, so satisfying: a very clear and concise tutorial, so helpful for us Revit LT users needing to create lots of our own components.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You make things easy to make. Your videos disconnect us from daily routine. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@miketaylor8211]

Thanks. Sometimes our daily routine can get monotonous.. I like to shake it up a bit. And actually.. I'm optimistic (joyful) most of the time.
