I would go with a 292. 291 will probably work fine. As someone pointed out that the spokes stretch about .5 mm when
you tighten them. And a single turn of the spoke is about 1 mm (forget the exact amount, but I am certain that less then
2 turns equals more then a mm).

What tool are you using to get the spoke lengths?

Can't say I've ever had a jankity wheel, but jbonamici is still way ahead of me on cattywhompus and whopperjawed wheels. :}
