Progress
First wheel build: DT Swiss R450 rim 32H, laced to a Surly 32H solid axle 120mm rear hub, Wheelsmith double butted 2.0/1.8 spokes (black) cut to 289mm, Wheelsmith 14G nipples.
Time elapsed: around 3 hours so far. I had to relace the wheel three times after messing up the pattern. 3rd time’s the charm.
