not sure if this will help - try Sheldon Brown's wheel building page and/or e-mail Harris Cyclery to pick their brains too.

Don't run red lights, wear a helmet, use hand signals, get some cycle lights(front and rear) and, FFS, don't run red lights!

You forgot the holes! There's probably 30 spoke holes you left out of your picture! And, a hole for the tube stem!

While knowledge is always good, it isn't always necessary. I've ridden for nearly 40 years and done almost all my own work for 35 without knowing the real, legitimate names of most of those parts.

You don't have to be an engineer to drive a car! Yet you do not need a driver licence in order to be a great physicist.
With best regards,
