Buckle wheel repair

Ok so I decided to have a go and unbuckle my rear wheel and after some research methodically dived in and am pretty happy with the result, not perfect but good enough.
My only concern now is that some spokes are really tight and some really loose, if I try and even it out the buckle starts to appear again - am I ok to continue with tight/loose spokes or is it time to admit defeat and take it to a bike shop to see if they can sort it?

It may be that the rim is twisted beyond repair, resulting in the scenario you suggest. Even tension keeps a wheel strong.
A slight buckle is not a bad thing with disc brakes.0
