beauty of the spoke to rim transition
My spoke to rim transition is shit, I'll probably spend a whole evening next week trying to make it blend like a real one. For some reason which I don't yet understand, it won't even do a small radius fillet at the moment.

Exactly, that's why I looked up a real one to see what it should look like.
I think it can be done properly with swept surfaces. But I've spent 60% of the last couple months in Siemens NX' freeform toolbox, so might be a case of "if all you have got is a hammer"... I'll have a go on the train tomorrow, maybe I can save you from an evening of agony.

I never appreciated the beauty of the spoke to rim transition before seeing them drawn like this. Now I want a trispoke.
