OK I think I follow, so I would use washers when adjusting the hub out of the frame. Not sure I follow your footnote though, it seems like you're saying the same thing as the first line? Sorry for being dense
Cheers. I might just risk it with the spokes then. From what I understand about the tensioning/dishing process, I would know before attempting to ride on it whether the NDS spokes are critically too short, as I wouldn't be able to dish it properly without having a massive difference in tension on either side?

Making this post was definitely the motivation I needed to get cracking... Exciting post day from SJS:
In my excitement I forgot to add rim tape to my order, as well as the spacer for using this hub with my 7-speed cassette, so they won't be going on the bike just yet. Plus it'll be my first wheel build so I'm not expecting this to be quick.

Lovely project, tempted by something like this too when funds allow. Just looking at the reviews on Argos and found this beautifully hideous 'steampunk' mod
