: I wondered about

: Hi Ben,
: That is about what I did on my last stripper. I drilled 1/4" holes at
: registration marks 3" out from centerline. I did the initial
: alignment with strings stretched through these. I then fine-tuned the
: forms by shining a laser pointer through the holes. Was quick and easy,
: and i could recheck alignment throughout the stripping process to see if
: anything had moved.

Hi Grant

I found the stringline approach very straightforward and it sounds as if the laser does the same for you. How big is the laser? Do you mount two of them on the strongback to get the straightness. Do you put plastic bullseyes across the 1/4 in hole to sight in the forms for the laser light. How wide a swath of light does the laser throw?

Now you have to try front wedging the forms.(hehehe)
