Then one day - very recently, I might add - I re-read Sheldon's wheelbuilding guide, figured out where I got confused, and haven't made the error again. I also submitted a suggestion to John (Allen) to revise the wording of the guide where the wording had confused me years ago...and he did!

One other useless bit of trivia: The factory built wheel w/original Raleigh spokes on my '50 Superbe from @Ged117 was laced wrong and also had the same issue. I re-did that entire side
