When I build up 3× wheels I find myself bending the spokes quite severely in order to do the crossings without scratching the rim. Is this a problem? I am assuming because they're steel spokes they're fine.
I guess the solution would be to cross all the spokes and then just attach each nipple rather than doing the 4 groups as in the Sheldon method?
