- string works for me, nice and low-tech. Here's some other checks you can do: --
lay each station form on a piece of white card, trace around it and flip it to see if it's symmetrical; also check the centerline.
stack the station forms directly on top of each other and see if you get a fair across around the edges.
- basically all that is left is to ensure the strongback is actually straight, but even then you can use a chalk line to snap a straight line on it - provided it's stable.
