I haven't been into the bowels of this thread, but I'd like to offer that I used Sheldon's instructions with great success for a dozen or so wheels. And good on 'ya for building a set of your own wheels. I really enjoy the build process and I continue to marvel when I'm out on the road and look down at my handiwork. I'm hopeful your experience is similar.

Nice input. It does feel nice to marvel over our accomplishments either large or small.
TRUST ME Dean..... You really do not want to go into the 'bowels' of this thread,
in my opinion. We all know what bowels contain..... Poor 'damyersmn'.... he just asked a relatively simple question.
I waive my Pope like hand over him and say
