Calculating rods length and radius for X Y and Z towers

Hi,
Where can i find information about where to place X, Y and Z towers like the radius and the length of the rods ?

This is what I used for my printer. You don't have to be 100% acurate on the rod lengths, however you do have to be very accurate to match the rods to each other as close as possible. I have roughly .1-.2mm difference in mine, its as close as I could get. I am also using solid alu drilled and tapped. I recommend CF tubes instead. Not as expensive as you think. If you need some pointers, my printer is a one of, and it is printing properly as of last night. Check out my blog in my sign it may help you on your adventures.

A really good rule of thumb is to make the rods 80% of the distance between the tower centres. It's always worked for me.
