Leveling the hill section side to side

[zeebzob]

I've always found it difficult to get the hill section perfectly level from side to side. I came up with an idea and had Ian machine it up for me. Turned out great! Just want to give Goat Boy props for this and say thanks!
I also want to share this out with everyone to see what we did. Ian machined 2 pieces of aluminum that have a 90 degree notch in them offset at a 27.1 degree angle. You put them on the start hill and you can set your level on them while you make your adjustments. You would actually start on the curve section first, then add the hill section and level it there as well.
Here are pics...enjoy!

I am curious though, if you shoot the hill with a laser plumb line to get it verticle, then do you need to loosen the hinge bolts and adjust each end of the leg hinges to level the deck without losing your plumb? All the while keeping the hill angle at 27.1 degrees?
That sounds like a quick path to madness! I like it! Lol!
