when I was trying different patterns, I did use the inside -ouut side pattern but the spokes from outside to inside were too short, and therefor loose and I did not want to pay for brass washers like ai did for my drive wheel. 14 cents each can add up fast.. and I read some where that out side spokes made for a wider stringth, so I tryed it.

No brakes now torque forces. I could do just about any thing. more for art than anything else.

But, why did you do 100% outbound spokes, rather than alternating inbound/outbound.

Ahh, interlacing vs no interlacing??

It may not make a difference for a vertical load wheel.

Hmmm...

So, the idea is that if you apply rotational torque (pedaling/braking) to the hub, then the interlacing straightens the pulling spoke, thus pulling the lax spoke slightly, and helping maintain even tension.

That really won't matter for your trailer.

If you've already built the wheel, then I don't think I'd worry about it. It'll be fine.

Note, many of the 2-wheel trailers also dish the wheels outward to give them a slightly wider stance.
