Far more common than you would imagine. A local engineer near me was doing a raft of em a while back for someone ???
Munnyella:
Didn't drill araya's, but have done a set of cheapo single wall rims, easy enough if you set your self up properly I made a jig up from a bit of flat steel, 2 bots of rod that dropped through 2 spoke holes with a guide hole between the 2 rods, saved marking up for every hole.
Used a bit of stiff strapping from a pallet as rim tape.
Yeeee Haaaa!!!
Must have been OK, Kappy bought them!!
