The "Jobst method" is to have a rear wheel with "pulling spokes inboard" that is with the heads on outside of flange, and these spokes "mirror image" from DS to NDS flanges...it always worked perfectly when I followed his steps using a conventionally drilled rim. Unfortunately for us who don't grasp the theory behind his steps when there's any deviations Jobst just glosses over how you are supposed to compensate. Sheldon's diagrams with multi-colored spokes just don't "read" well to me, the color-code is confusing not clarifying. But I will keep trying and am sure I'll have a "lightbulb" moment where it all makes sense and I'll think: "why didn't somebody just SAY so! Jeesh!" Thanks again for everybody who's trying to help!
