I'm having a problem with cord lengths. I can't find any estimates about how long they should be for 8 foot whip.
I made some calculations. It seems that 50cm strands make about 20cm plait using 16-plait, 14-plait or 4-plait. I also noticed that 4-plait can't cover one full strand and two hollow strands. Therefore I plan to remove the core filling before 6-plait drops to 4-plait. Then 4-plait only has to cover three hollow strands (core and 2 from 6-plait).
I will use following cord lengths: 12m, 12m, 11m, 10m, 9m, 8m, 7m and 6m. There is propably loads extra, but it's better than too little.
