Most likely error is that you put the initial spokes in the wrong holes on the 2nd flange, but having problems with the last 8 spokes does not make sense - should be 9. (36/4). However, you could have the wrong spoke length as well. I would suggest you start over and refer to Sheldon's excellent guidance: Wheelbuilding
