    Default Measuring Twister Tails


    The title says it all. How do you measure twister tails? Just the solid body part? Body and tail at furthest point? etc.
    Thanks, Pop

    Just measured 3 packages from different brands. From the tip of the body to the first curl in the tail matches size on package. Do not pull tail straight.

    Let it lay on the table naturally, not straightened out and take the measurement from the nose to furthest part of the tail (where it starts to curl). Usually there is a big difference between 2" & 3" curly tails, mainly due to the thickness of the plastic used for each.
