Gemrod -
I don't use Kathy's furling system. My furling jig is hand powered, for both twisting and furling. I use some set formulas given to me by the fellow who taught me the furling process using a set up similar to my own.
I do a 10-8-6 with a final length of about 64" with 40% butt, 30% mid and 30% tip, which is good for up to my 5 wt rod and about 5' of up to 2X tippet. I've done a 14-12-10 in the same 40-30-30 configuration, which does better on the 5 wt and will probably do okay on the 7 wt, if and when I get around to it.
I haven't tried to "max out" my tippet length, so I really do know how much I could put on and turn over effectively. Another thing I may get around to on a slow day, one of these days.
