your better off takign a pic and doing it in paint or photoshop ( drawing the lines in rough )
that will gove yu an idea !
id order at least 10 foot tbh ( for my loop which doesnt use even that !!! )
what ever you work ity out as, add another 2-3 foot ontop of it,.
when routing the tubing. lerngth is primary ! keep ythe lengths as short as possible
and keep the wexcess Tygon in a bag away from nasdties and dust ... you probobly will need it at soem point !

for what reason?
The line of east resistance in terms of kinks/bends is normally the best in my experience/opinion, I wouldn't hesitate to add in a bit more tubing to make a bend less likely to kink.
You seem to have gone post crazy tonight, the top half dozen or more threads have you as the most recent poster and if all you can muster is a simple 4 word sentence, whats the point?
I also bought 10 feet.
And when installing the tubes make them long enough so thay don't kink, the first tubing I had kinked very easily and the tubing I have now is very stiff, it all depends on the tubing.

Always worth going for a bit extra - nothing worse than buying 'just enough' and then messing up a length and having to wait for more to arrive! Alos means if you add anything in in the future, you've got some left over. I too like the sound of 10 feet.
I would recommend XSPC tubing, imho its a match for tygon and its about £3 a meter where tygon is about the same for a foot!
I also echo that too much is never a bad thing, truth is once you've done one system if you're anything like me you'll have it in bits doing it again within a few weeks anyway
