Made my own dishing tool also...
Randy's truining stand and dishing tool are excellently designed and made.

Not as heavy construction as the Park truing stands, but adequate for the very few wheels I build. Also about half the price and the extra money went to buy a matching Minoura dishing tool.

I also have a Minora also. It's pluses are less expensive and it folds and fits into a neat little box. It does the job for the once a year or less that I need it.
