I had a wheel so out of true (almost taco-ed) no one would touch it - Took it apart for the hell of it - Then a push here - A bend here - Stretching on the picnic bench - Wedging in a door - A tap here and there - Vice grips - Slowly - Like a straightened out paper clip - I had a wheel again - OK - So put the hub and spokes back loosely and low and behold still straight - So made a dishing tool out of card board and set the wheel true and eventually ended up with a great trued wheel that I am now using - So what do I regret.... Man I should have at least cleaned it up before reassembly...
Great job...
