: If you are measuring from the top of the spacers down to the
: strongback, make sure that there is no sag in the middle of the
: strongback. Before you set up your spacers, measure from the
: floor to the strongback at both ends and the middle to ensure
: that it is perfectly straight. There is no point setting the
: riser heights to within a mm, but have a 10 mm sag in the middle
: of the strongback.

: And if your floor is like mine, string it, get it tight and it won't lie to ya. Kevin
