Hey Chuckk,
Interesting project. Just wondering if your method includes provision for the spoke nipples to be 'tweaked' should they need tightening or adjustment to remove a buckle/warp? The Outex kit uses a small 'dot' of fiberglass tape on the back of each nipple such that it can spin under the heavy sealant band that runs around the inside of the rim. My bike has the Outex kit but so far I haven't had to adjust any spokes to know if the method actually works.
BTW Looks like you got excellent fun value from that D204 using it edge to edge ... great stuff!
cheers
