I actually used a ruler (straight edge) to line the ends of the pipes up with the slant of the bags as I tightened the clamps.

Slash down, so that water / rain doesn't collect in the bottom of the pipes and rust the pipes.

It does 'look' better slash up, but I didn't want to have the pipes rust out...
