Rusty Klunker

Wore out three sets of tires already!
Has anyone posted a schwinn spoke chart from one of the manuals?

Couple projects I have, and what I am looking for.
Spokes for
36 hole bendix kickback 26" rim
S-2
S-7
3x
4x

28 hole bendix kickback 24" rim
S-2
S-7
3x
4x

I have a HD that needs a wheel rebuilt and will be adding a kickback.
I have an assortment of spokes from hubs RB2, 70, Atom drum and small flange front hubs. Like the wheels to match but I don't think I have the proper lenght for 3x.

Out of the 8 lengths I'm looking for I know I have two. .. just have to pull out spokes.
The others just looking for length to keep filed
 
We are usually told that on 26" s2/LobdellFlat/DropCenter and s7 all used the same spokes, 10-5/8" I believe the story goes, and you need cross 4 on s2/LobdellFlat/DropCenter and cross 3 on s7. It probably works.

I don't believe the factory always adhered to this. My 61 Speedster was laced on the rear with 10-5/16" spokes, s7, cross 3, and a Bendix red band 2-speed kickback. It was laced on the front with 10-11/16" spokes, s7, cross 3, and a "Schwinn Approved" low flange (typical) front hub. This all appeared to be done with Union double butted spokes, so I believe it was factory.
 
After going through pages the only thing I found was a Hollywood 2sp 10-1/4 spokes. Thats an S-7, 3x.
Out of the eight lenghts I'm looking for thats one of the two I know.

I'm looking to repair this wheel and add a kickback. Not really wanting to make it a 4x but I have an assortment of spokes from the hubs I listed. I might have the right lenght for 4x but I don't know what that is.
I have another 24" project too, and was hoping to find a chart with all eight listed.
 
Out of the eight lenghts (measurement) I'm asking for I know two. The actual (physical) I need would be 10- 1/4,.. that I do not have... or I wouldn't be asking. 😉
The ones I do have are shorter, longer and a lot longer (havent broken the wheels down).
Now the longer ones might work 4x but I don't know that number.
