You don't even need a wheelstand to build wheels, a pair of forks for the front and the bike frame itself for the rear.
I noticed on a web review that a boutique wheel builder was effectively charging £100 to build a wheel i.e. was selling a pair of wheels for £500 where you could buy the parts retail for £300.
It's now a lot easier to source quality wheel parts from abroad which makes it even more attractive than relying on your LBS.
