    Snapping Round Duct Together
    Hello,

    I bought all the ductwork needed to finish my basement, and what I thought was the easy part isn't so easy! I bought 5' round 6" duct from Home Depot. The kind where it is circular, but you need to snap it together to complete the circle. I can NOT get it snapped together! I feel like I've tried everything. Is there any trick to getting it to snap together? I can't even start anything until I get this figured out! Thank you.

    There is no secret at all you can do it.Try holding it horizontal across your legs and the with 2 hands start the inverted process of getting them together. Or lay it flat and then try to get it.You may have someone help you with the 5 ft lenghts.You can do it.
