I’ve got my CWC Pilot project to where I can ride it. While I tried sooooo hard to save the original paint, the Halloween nightmare of overpaint job wasn’t having it. Since original paint wasn’t an option, I decided to switch it up a little. I’ll post a more in depth thread with more details...

The rust is gone and new metal is welded into the tank and I just finished painted my 1950 24" Colorflow style bike. Started lacing up the wheels today and had to quit. Frustrated. I had two sets of these Murray of Ohio wheels and you'd think after some of my previous bouts with lacing wheels that I'd leave one set alone until I got the other set re-spoked. Nope, not me. So after a couple of tries and searching the web, I'm at a loss as to lace a 24" 28 spoke wheel. Should be like a 26" 36 hole wheel except that there are seven sets of four spokes instead of 9 sets of four spokes. New spokes were not purchased until I measure the ones that I took out. They're the same. SO if anyone has any advice, please post it here. I'm still trying to figure out how many crosses I'm dealing with. One thing I saw on the internet said something about a 2 cross but it was for a mountain bike and didn't look like a typical vintage spoke pattern.
