Yea, your eyes can play tricks on you. Also camera angles play trick too. Arowhed's system might be dead on in person even though the photo does not reflect that. Ive taken so many photos and sifted thru before posting. Ive had quite a few that distorded my system also.
I did use string when setting mine up. Also a straight edge and one of those picture hanging red laser lines. If ya stare at it long enough it still plays tricks on ya. I also used everyone who visited me to look at it and tell me if they thought it was crooked.
One thing about using the straight edge is that all the pulleys have a different size front lip so ya cant use the lip as the guide. I measured off of it and back to the first rib of each pulley.
