Finishing strip sizes

[TK5492[TK]]

Sorry to ask this as I know it has been covered before. Hopefully you guys won't hold it against me. Been searching all night and can't seem to find the thread with the definitive answer.

 

Can someone break down the outer butt join finishing strip sizes for me please.

 

calves-? mm

thighs-? mm

biceps-? mm

forearms-? mm

 

Thanks folks.

There is no definitive answer. That's why you can't find it.

 

But if you want a generalized rule of thumb:

 

calves-20 mm

thighs-20 mm

biceps-15 mm

forearms-15 mm

back of the calves-25 mm

But if you need them bigger, adjust them as needed. The originals varied a lot

Thank you Mathias, that is exactly what I was looking for. And thanks for the advice, Karin. It's always nice to know where breathing room is allowed.

RS props mentions that some of the finishing strips actually taper.

Don't be afraid to make strips to the size that YOU need. I'm a lot bigger than the OG TKs so a few of my strips ended up having to be HUGE. That being said, you should probably even them out and make sure the largest ones are in the back or bottom parts where they are less visible. When done right, the difference in size is barely noticeable.
