dishing tool questions

[dragnusa]

I was looking thru bike tools on a site and seen a rim dishing tool, Ive never seen one, are they worth investing in or should I just keep saving for a trueing stand?

Just get the stand.A good stand will alow you to dish with out a "tool"

Given the choice between a dishing tool or a truing stand, I would have to have the stand! And I own both. The dishing tool is a handy thing to have if you plan on doing dished wheel builds, but as stated prior, not needed as much as a stand. Good spoke calcs are a far more needed app. in a dished wheel build than a dishing gauge!
