Welcome aboard the good ship Steam Traction World. 

I hope you enjoy your build and post lots of updates. 
As always a question is only silly if you already know the answer.

Hi, as Lynn said, welcome.
Theoretically I've got another 7 months build left on my 4" Agri, have to say its been thoroughly enjoyable.

Thanks for the welcomes. Got the first kit on Tuesday & have been cleaning out tapped holes & sanding bits. Taken the spokes out of their bags & not sure which ones are Spoke A (BU401020) & which are Spoke B (BU40103C) can anyone help ?

It was quite a long time ago, but if I remember correctly the two different types of spokes were wrapped in two sets. The first thing I did with mine was stamp each one with either A or B.
Saved a lot of confusion later.

Looking at the spokes which are longer the inside ones or the outside ones ?

Just checked on my wheels, the outside spokes are around 145mm so are "A", the inside are around 140mm so are "B".
To be sure, I would give Steve a ring.
