Just in case any of you haven't got a wheel truing jig yet and need one, here's one I made which takes rim sizes from super skinny 2.50x21 right up to 18 inches wide...

As you can see from the pics, it can take wheels with and without a spindle (axle bolt) and has dual run-out pointers.....I think I did some drawings of this
I'll post them if I can find them......
