Wheels again today (and so on).

I built the rear wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel No. 8.
It's the matching set to the front wheel I did the other day.

Revο Disc Hub, 24H black semi-competition, four-cross lacing pattern.
I'll do the spoke soldering later.

Our shop's soldering iron (HAKKO 984) has suddenly passed away.
Either there's a break somewhere in the wiring, but
it won't heat up at all no matter if I plug it in.
It's not like we've been coaxing it along with occasional symptoms like this before—
it really just stopped working out of nowhere.
After finishing the spoke soldering on the WH-R8170,
I unplugged it, and then tried to open the valve hole in the Stan's rim tape
on that same wheel when it suddenly broke.
It was about 3 minutes after I last used it.


So in a pinch, I went to the Daiso in the Shinsaibashi shopping arcade and
bought a soldering iron for ¥550 including tax, but
it was just as awkward to use as the price suggests.
