I suffered a foot injury last summer, which has gradually gotten worse, (despite 4 months of medical (in)attention!) and has gotten to the point where I can not ride and can't walk more than short distances. This has cut into virtually every activity that requires standing, and it now looks like it will be at least another 5 or 6 weeks until I'm back to something like normal.
So instead of spending free time in my woodworking shop this winter, I'm thinking about building my first set of wheels, which can be done sitting down. The first pair will be pretty expensive since I will not only need all the components, but a truing stand. That's the real question here - which one. My son, who is pretty good at this, but on the other side of the country, is encouraging me to buy the Park Stand. He claims, that if the stand is true I wont need the dishing tool. The other option I've seen on the web is the Minoura, which has the advantage of being about $130 less than the Park. Suggestions and recounts of others experience welcome.
