Wheelbuilding

Quite intimidating task at first glance, but it's not actually difficult, may even be fun. First wheel I ever tried to lace came out double instead of triple crossed, then I had to file down spoke tips to prevent punctures, and now the wheel is still in service. Second wheel was better, but I messed up the crossing order and it was not very strong. After third re-truing I lost patience and remade it. Next wheels were OK. First two attempts at calculating spoke length ended with their exchange, last six were correct. I'll try to describe my proven process.
