No. I read the Sheldon Brown website, and this book and then got stuck in. It's not rocket science. Having decent tools (spoke key, truing stand, tensiometer) helps though.
Is it necessary to attend a course before attempting a self-build? ie are they gonna be able to show me some tricks and tips to stop the wheels falling apart, or is good old common sense and Youtube ok?
