Yes, built two pair of wheels as well, no problem with them.
They have got these in silver 36 holes

The silver 36h rims look better made than the schurmann, but much narrower. Take 13mm rim tape. Don't know if that has much of a consequence but I guess you won't be able to use as wide tyres?

It wont effect compatible tire width dramatically, but narrower rims do require you to run your tires at higher pressures, which kind of defeats the point.
