If its only a slight wobble- Then do it in the frame- Set the brakes up so they nearly touch the rim to find where the kink is and Work from there. I have a trueing stand and only use it for really bad wheels.

The awkward Kinks to get out are where the wheel has gone Oval. Lots of adjusting and slackening on lots of spokes and then the retension. I don't have a spoke tension tool so wheels Like this Go to the LBS.
