Hopefully you'll be posting photos and instructions on where to begin when you start lacing up the other side.
 
How about a rear wheel,They seem to be a lot harder.Something about the drive side and dish side.Also feeding the spokes thru the sprocket can be problem.Anybody try a rear wheel.

Rear hubs are intended to be laced as a hollow shell. The large notch that mfgs. built into the sprockets, although very considerate, was only intended to be used to help aid the replacement of a broken spoke.

Rear hubs on a cruiser are easy peasy as we don't have to worry about "dish", it's the road bikes with multi speed cassettes that get tricky, as the drive-side spokes get laced vertically, or in the same plane as the rim to accommodate space for the cassette.
