[QUOTE="PALMER84ONE, post: 181295, member: 6"] Never laced but trued many... I purchased a stand long ago for my bicycles and use it for my moto wheels now. Before I did I made this.... Take a piece of wood 1"X2"X4" and cut a "V" out of it long ways, pre-drill and run a screw through it sideways. Now, put that on the fork tube or swing arm (screw pointing at rim) and strap it on with Zip Ties. Run the screw in to the rim so that it is either making a slight scraping noise and/or hitting the high spots. Now, when it hits a high spot, loosen that side spoke and tighten the other side on either side of the one you loosen. Primitive, but it will get you where you need. Eventually, you will learn the whole rhythm and do great. I can't dish or lace, but can get it back in spec from original. Good luck.. [/QUOTE]
