Any practical experience in Hinge Alignment or misalignment.... I have 5 spaced every 2 feet for 8 feet (one in the middle is the elevator horn) Any practical experience here as to how far off they can be and still work smoothly. There is a certain amount of play usually in the pivots and we all know there has to be a tolerance to all moving parts. Right now I am in hinge hell and figured I would take a break. The laser level is lots closer than the stretched wire so I am not sure weather I am over-thinking this.
