Hi there. I would recommend to work with 1/8 of the mesh. 1. Start with your basic shapes 2. Create seperate mesh that would act as boolean 3. Boolean 4. Rotate the mesh 45 degrees 5. delete 1/8 of the mesh 6. Clean up 7. Rotate back -45 degrees 8. Symmetri and voila. HERE IS THE 1/8th of the mesh cleaned -

Hey buddy, this is a nice practice in studying your references properly and planning it out. As seen below: You have two repeating patterns of spoke A and spoke B. 4 of each, 8 in total. Two axises can be mirrored using symmetry, so 3/4ths of this can be ignored. One additional symmetry can be placed at the center of the B… -
