I don't like the fact that it's only a one cross pattern and that the spokes ended up paired two to one side, two to the other all the way around. I'm going to keep playing with it.
Thanks for your interest. Yeah, clearly it is possible for the LLRR pattern (and you don't need CAD to see why).
The question is is it possible for a LRLR pattern? Many people claim it is, but neglect to explain how.
