A good friend of mine recently made me a truing stand based on the plans in the Roger Musson book.
He made a smashing job of it and I've just finished making the gauges and giving everything a coat of paint.
Being made of wood, you get a really clear note when plucking the spokes to even tension.
I'm going to build some wheels for my CAADX on it first, with some Shimano RS505 disc hubs, Pacenti SL25 rims and DT Swiss Competition spokes. 32 spokes per wheel 3x.
Here's some pics...
