Shoutout to the shop in Portland that showed me how to true a wheel in 8 minutes flat
Was at a shop in Portland last winter helping a buddy with a wheel build. The head mechanic walked over, saw me struggling with tension, and grabbed the spoke wrench out of my hand. He showed me this trick where you sight down the rim from the hub instead of the tire side. Took me from 25 minutes per wheel to about 8 once I got the hang of it. Anyone else picked up a weird shortcut from watching a pro work?

That sighting trick saved me 15 minutes per wheel for sure.

Saved 20 minutes on my first big truck set after that tip.
