Wheel building advice please?

Any old-school wheel builders out there that can refresh my memory as to the rule of thumb for additional spoke length for lacing up a snowflake?





I can't remember if it is plus three or plus five mm of additional length for each twist. Using 14 /15 gaugeWheel building advice please?
It is 1.5 times the diameter of the spoke for each twist. This can vary with the spoke material.Wheel building advice please?
Better call Sheldon Brown.
have a laugh!
