So I have ran into some delay, while looking at the hub and the spokes i realized that they don't quite fit it's not a huge difference maybe half a millimeter but it's enough to stop the spoke from going through the hole, if I really decided to pull I could probably get one through but then the paint from he spokes would flake. So Instead of doing that I took my dremel tool and shaved a little bit off toward the center of the hub, to do this i took a metal cutting bit and began to cut the holes, not quite slotting the hub but making just enough room to accept the spoke. In the pictures below you can see the before and after.
