: Then you screw
: "cleats" onto the strongback in front of the forms. Doing this
: however obscures the centerlines on the strongback making aligning rather

try putting the cleats on the opposite side to the markout. then the lines will not be obscured. i used a different alignment system, but even it would have been assisted somewhat if i had put the bulky stuff on the opposite side.

(i assume the markouts face the bow and stern from the yakctr so you can sight the lines from smaller form to larger forms at the yakctr)
