Wheel truing and building is not as scary as it seems.
Yes, although you need to know what you are doing because in the worst case it can be a really costly fuck-up and/or dangerous. Working on "regular" wheels is usually quite easy though.
I have 0 idea what i'm doing when i build mine, then i watched Park Tools video about it. That company is truly a god send for home repair.
