Ok, I haven't trued up the 2nd wheel (front wheel) yet, just pre-tensioned it. But I'm so far liking the change to the interlacing better that what I did with the rear wheel. I'll see how it works out once I get it in the truing stand.
I am worried those outside, non-interlaced spokes are a little floppy (i.e. maybe too long?). If that's the case, I'll nip a couple of millimeters off and run them back through my spoke threading gizmo.
But for now, here are some pics: the modified interlacing (notice also the lack of damaged powdercoating), and the pair.
