ive just finishing lacing some
24" ukai's ive followed "stidds how to"
and they seemed to be correct.
all the spokes are tight bar 3 of them??
they are as tight as i can get them but
they are still loose??
any ideas?

What number of crosses have you gone for? Maybe you have one done a three cross but with spoke lengths for a 4 cross pattern $:-\$ .

It's possible you've got 3 spokes that are slightly longer than the rest ... mispicked by your supplier perhaps

I had the same thing the other week when lacing a cassette hub in to my rear 242 cruiser wheel, and the problem was that the 3 spokes were laced in to the wrong holes on the rim
