Wheelbuilding graphical representation app

[bduc61]

I am trying to find a simple tool that will draw a representation of the wheel for wheel lacing patterns
with input fields such as number of spokes on the right side, on the left side , spoke patterns and a graph will be issued according to these inputs

I am not looking for a spoke length calculator :facepalm:
but there may be one that has such a feature :idea:

I suspect ther should be a "nerd" somewhere that has done that :idea:

there is Parktool excel based sheet that is for spoke tension calculation that shows a very simple graph but the two sides of the wheel are distinct and I wish something with the whole wheel graph and possibly more sophisticated visually

I wonder if anyone has already seen that and where can I find it ? as I have been looking for it thanks to google but not to avail

Re:

There is/was a website with such a web based program on it.

Just cannot remember where. It was a site all about the patterns.

I'm sure a search would bring it up

This is one of the ones I was thinking of but not the one for odd patterns

many thanks
close for what I was looking for
but installation does not go through properly so icons are not created ok and you ve got to delve into the programm directory to start the prog :idea:
and the help does not work
unfortunately after closer scrutiny , the spoke number cannot be entered by side - so my simulation for a vintage roval rear hub which has an uneven number of spokes for each side (16 and is flawed :?
but its close to target
