You don't need a JIG to build a wire spoked wheel.

Re: jig for wire wheel building

The only jig system that I'm aware of is the type suggested by "Radco" in his "Vintage Motorcyclist's Workshop" book.

The idea behind that though was to make a wooden jig around the old wheel so that offset could be copied and centrality was unavoidable (assuming the original was good).

This might help.





I think the spoke lengths are in a parts book.
