have a go at lacing your own wheels. The lacing itself you can't really get wrong - it's either right or wrong, and it's easy to tell, and most bike shops will true and de-egg a pair of wheels for less than twenty squid. And it's great fun, because you can then look down your nose at lesser mechanics than you mighty self.
