The final result -- almost. I'm still looking for a bit fatter tubing for the tire and I still need to "muddy them up" a bit. The next pair will be better in lots of small ways. For example, on the next pair I'll use the smaller 10-hole hub, really go all out on getting the wooden parts of the hub to look identical to the metal parts (I was sort of lazy on the prime and sand cycles), and include small collars as the end of each spoke. I may also decide to repaint the rims in Metalizer steel instead of the flat aluminum I've used here (because that's what I had available). Oh, and one more thing, on this set of wheels the hubs extend equally to both sides (since that was easiest to do). On the next set I'll change the height setting on the jib before doing the spokes on the second side so that the "inside" side is less conical that the "outside" side.
