I got tired of spokes breaking, so I went "whole hog" on a solution.
I felt the spoke flange was too thin.
Which stressed the elbow.
First I added 12g spokes. (redrilled flange with 1/8" bit)
Flange still appeared too thin.
So, I added #4 sae washers that pulled the elbows tight to the flange.




With the spoke "enarmored" as best as I could devise, I felt the wheel might not measure up.
So I drilled wheel at 3/16" wrapped it with a couple layers of duct tape and reinforced with #10 sae washers.
