Lacing up a wheel in OC.. problems...

Anybody ever have a problem lacing up a hub (spool type) where the shoulder of the hub is to tall to allow the spoke to lay down flat towards the hoop? The OG hub I had built by wheel works and they supplied the SS spokes.. they had to bow them in.. I think this caused the hub to crack under the pressure.. So im trying to lace up my new one and this thing is killing me..... anyone know of someone local besides Wheel Works that could do this for me.. Has to be done before BF4 and I dont have a day off till that Saturday.... feel free to text me or call if you have an inside scoop on someone that can help a nigga out. Thanks. 949-439-1047

Dimples in the rim stamped at the wrong angle? or clocked one off?
Try a different gauge of spoke or maybe try a different lace pattern, maybe.
Or tweek each spoke at the "head" for a few less degrees?
Good luck

Try this guy, he works outta his pad in Chino Hills, so you could probably drop it off after hours. He does all the wheel trueing and straightening relacing for an Indy shop I go to. Its been a while since he laced a wheel for me, but he's good/fast.
