I’m no pro but Sheldon’s site has never let me down, he gives clear instructions about how to lace offset holes and how which side of the valve hole they’re on affects the pattern.

Wheelbuild help: I'd like to get a few pointers please if thats okay!
A few questions.
Currently trying to lace a Kinlin RD 3FT onto an Erase rear disc hub. My 2nd build and I'm struggling!
I'll refer to this looked at from the drive-side.
The holes are offset. The 1st hole forward of the valve is offset to the non-drive.
Is that common? Most how-to's seem to start with a drive side spoke in that hole.
Also looking at the hub (its 2nd hand has been laced previously),
The drive-side trailing spokes were laced heads in, but heads out on the non-drive? Is this common also?
I have a nasty feeling I've overreached but there again I went through that feeling with my first build! Cheers all!
