chris, if you have any contractor friends with a laser level/plumb (they are expensive, so don't break it!) you will set up the forms in an hour or so, and with incredible accuracy.....the laser shines a bright red line that is used as your level reference and a plumb line for centerline reference......no need to squat down to sight .......almost cheating its so easy and accurate......

good luck

It sounds crazy, but ignore the even number forms
