Help in ATX needed

Small, maddening hiccup in re-lacing the front wheel.  I assembled and disassembled three times yesterday.  I thought I finally had it, but then upon inspection this morning, laces on the right side were one back too far.  I went ahead and re-laced the real wheel with no problems.  It took about 15 minutes.  I think brought the wheels to Flash to meet a friend (bicycle mechanic) meet up with me.  They also had a CB750 there as well, so I could have a an exact wheel as a 3D model to aid me.  We tried the exact same pattern with multiple shifts over one or back one when lacing through the hub.  No go.  I think the spokes are too long.  I distinctly remember someone receiving the wrong length in one of the build threads from CB750Supply or VintageCB750. 

Does anyone have any recommendations?  Will anyone locally cut them and rethread them?  They are already powdercoated, so I want to salvage them.  Ooor, who would be the best person to drop them off to in order to give me a definitive answer on whether or not they are the correct length?

HALP!
