How are your rollers set up?

I just inherited a set of McLain rollers. I'm trying to set the front roller to match my wheelbase and have read some conflicting info. So I figured I'd get sh*t tons more conflicting info here. Haha. Anyway, should the front roller be directly under the front hub, slightly in front of, or slightly behind (or somewhere else completely)? I tried to get the roller ~1" forward of the hub and took a test spin. It is HARD to do, but from what I understand it just takes some practice. Is that the case?

PS I'm not looking down, but fixing my gaze on a stationary object, just like trackstanding. Which I can do.
