Dustin i did actually think about making some tools for wheelbuilding,

when i was doing carbon rims the jigs were flimsy so i did design some.....then thought better of it as machining a wheel dishing tool is just taking the piss i think, (but boy would it be straight as a die accurate), i wanna get back to building carbon fibre things I'm quite good at that

pretty sure one of the commercially availabe fixtures allows this, but not as nicely.

Re: Show your tool modifications
I put this together awhile back. I modified a lousy drill press vise that I had thrown to the side. I shaped a piece of .075" round bar, polished it up, and mounted it to the vise jaw. For the other side I sliced a piece of 1.00" pipe and secured it. Insert chainstay and squish.
