hole immediately COUNTERclocksise of the referenced spoke.
The paths visually cross right about at the diameter change of the spokes.
Obviously the stagger is incorrect for a true radial pattern.
Had the spoke in the far flange been laced to the hole immediately clockwise to the reference spoke,
the paths would be parallel and result in a true radial lacing pattern.
Simple.
There are no crossed spokes
on the same side of the hub. When talking about spoke crossing, I've never heard anyone talk about spoke crossing on opposite sides of the hub.
Yes, the solution is simple. I've already discussed why and how to fix it. Read my post and look at the picture. It's clear once you look at spokes 12 through 14. You are just making it harder than it really is.
