1-2 mm spoke length differences
Per the spoke calculator, I need 3 different, but very close, lenghts for new wheels that I'm building: 293,294, and 295 mm. Shimano ultegra hubs matched to velocity aerohead rims, 32 spokes.
Can I just purchase 294s for all? or should i get the 3 different lengths?
Thanks.

I'd buy all three sizes. But if you are going to try it with one sizes get the shortest, 293. If you were to buy long you would run the risk of running out of threads on the driveside rear, not good.
