It's great to watch a perfectionist take his sweet time, using dial gauges on an old cast iron stand (C&V content) to make a wheel effin' perfect for the right bike. Up, down, side, tension, pull the wheel and stress it, gauge it, touch it up. Inspirational. Second only to the frame build itself.

Lesser bike wheel builds can use brake blocks, tie wraps and thumbnails with satisfying results as well.
