If you don't have a tension meter, you can do it by ear. Just pluck the spokes and on a new rim (not bent or out of round) with no dish they will all be the same frequency. Or pretty close.
I usually spin the wheel and let a small wrench or screwdriver bounce off the spokes - and you can compensate for dish by the pattern of sounds (bink-bonk-bink-bonk)....
This has worked well for the motorcycle wheels I have built too.
Nice job though @
Velocivixen - must feel good to be done that one!!
