A while back I posted about a $10 wheel truing stand which I'd made out of scraps of wood from the shed and a few dollars worth of springs and bolts from Bunnings. Some people asked for pictures.
Well I have finally gotten my first digital camera ([censored] quality camera phone actually) and took a few snaps of the stand and uploaded them to Flickr
This is my first attempt to upload photos to Flickr, so I hope the link above is the correct one I'm supposed to give out.
Sorry about the crappy quality of the pictures, but they do show the mechanical detail well enough to see what's going on, if you follow the accompanying text anyway.
Interesting! I guess you could take the same approach with an old bike frame out of the hard rubbish - drill a few holes and put in some bolts for guides - for front and back wheels.

That's very well put together, I might have to make myself one now. ;-)

Well done!

Want me to upload pics of my DIY bike workstand as well, while I'm at it?
