First step: get the hub out of the old wheel. Liza serenades while sipping a bourbon -- this makes the tedious job of de-spoking a Deep V much better. She's singing "Tonight You Belong to Me."
Second step: lace it up. Doh! It's a 32 hole hub. That would be a 36 hole rim. Dammit. Thankfully, one of Liza's best tunes is "Always Look at the Bright Side of Life."

Oh I'm picking out a thermos for you
not an ordinary thermos for you
but the extra best thermos you can buy
with vinyl and stripes and a cup built right in...
that's awesome. thanks.
With algebra and a nonjudgmental lacing pattern, the wheelbuilder can overcome a minor 9:8 rim to hub discrepancy with relative ease.
Success depends on maintaining a positive (but not overly permissive) attitude along with appropriate tool selection.
You may wish to try again with Scotch and a banjo.
DBN: excellent advice on the supporting infrastructure, but I pondered the 9:8 solution as I drifted into dream last night and it kept me up... I couldn't get over the fact that blocking off 4 holes on the rim would result in throwing off the right/left spoke hole pattern. I'm thinking there's probably some internet solution, but I have a plan for the rim, so it won't go to waste.
Have you heard about the development up on the bluff. I would love to see you post about it. WE could lose some great trails. Hope all is well. Jake
If a train leaves Hubhole at 32 mph, and another departs Rimhole at 36 mph, how soon will they reach Spokean?
