Built a Rear Wheel with SLX Disc Hub

I built the matching rear wheel to go with the front wheel I made the other day.

The rim is a DM18 like the front wheel, and the hub is an SLX disc hub
(though SLX doesn't come in a non-disc version anyway).
The front wheel has 36 holes and the rear has 32 holes because
I built the wheels based on the spoke hole count of the hubs I already had.

I'll do the spoke tensioning later.

↑This is just after roughly threading the spokes, but
you can see the rim seam is still open.
