Nds should be laced exactly the same way as the ds, assuming you're using the same number of crosses. If the first spoke you laced on the ds was adjacent to the valve hole, the first spoke you lace on the nds must also be adjacent to the valve hole. Any photos of what your wheel looks like now?

Not right now because I'm out, but it looks the same as another 32 spoke 3x wheel I've got.
The video suggests they're not the same, e.g. that one of the valve hole spokes is threaded from the inside, the other side from the outside. I was confused when that wasn't how my reference wheel was but I think I've fixed it now.
Anyone in (far) East London got a nipple driver I could borrow for the afternoon?

Here's the wheel. It's still a bit covered in chain lube.
Also I couldn't find my spoke key so it's just been laced as best I could with a flathead screwdriver.

I attempted a wheel build last night, using videos from thebiketube channel on YouTube.
When it came to the non-drive side, I had problems.

The video suggests two things:
-You start lacing the NDS spokes in alternate holes from the outside where it seems most logical
-the first spoke laced from the inside out needs to be the valve hole spoke, which is basically the opposite spoke to the valve hole spoke on the drive side
Something about those two steps (which didn't seem particularly precise) didn't work, and there was too big a distance for the NDS valve hole spoke.
In the end, I had to change all the NDS spokes round, so innies became outies, and then the spokes next to the one which was the valve hole spoke worked.
What went wrong? Is there a more precise way of work out how to lace the NDS or did I get something wrong from the video?
