I judge everything in reference to adjusting 911 valves. I figure if X is easier than laying with my cheek on a hot engine, blindly feeling a gap with a gauge clipped to a burnt finger, I will do X. If X is harder, then I won't.

So, is wheel building easier or harder than adjusting 911 valves?

Assume I get all the right tools.

Err, which would they be?

Do I get the truing stand AND the dishing tool? Should I get a spoke tension gauge? Since we're talking tools here, the dollars don't count (like the calories in chocolate don't count).
