I also use bicycle spokes, and have for quite a while. They are excellent IMHO.

Mark, they do make drilling your holes easier since the bit required is larger and sturdier. I might also add here that I drill my holes from both directions just in case the bit wants to wander in the poplar. so far, it has worked every time.

I owe my youngest a trip to the bike store. This sounds like a good excuse!

Why go to bike store? do what I do, sneak around neighborhood with pair of linemans pliers and take one here, two there, and if I really don't like someone I'll take several. They never notice right off.
Now don't really try this at home, I'm a trained professional.

just joking, just joking, just joking
