No big deal, really, if you have the tools. Actually, measuring and string work fine too. Any upright primate could do it.
Do you have a special tool for checking alignment? I'd imagine those are pretty pricey, no? I'd thought I'd have the lbs do the dropout alignment as I doubt I could justify that cost for one time.
