Lacing wheels in Ohio?

I was gonna attempt to lace a 21 inch spoked wheel myself, but would like to know if there's anyone in the Ohio/Youngstown area that has any experience with lacing wheels, just in case.............?

I can't believe there isn't someone around Youngstown that does it, it is a dieing art

Are there any dirt bike shops in the area? They usually do a lot of lacing. I laced my own and had them true mine up. Just a thought.

That was great advice. I did find a (dirt bike racing) shop nearby, and the guy told me he'd take care of it for around $50! May not be worth my aggravation to do it myself.....but not as cool either.
Thanks for the help
