When it comes to reassembly, a few simple handtools will make alignment easy. Many years ago I worked on structural steel, building a 2-storey building.  The handiest tool was an 18" hand spike with a wrench head.  When the crane moved the I-beam close, spear the spike into the moving piece, catch the tip in the built piece and lever things into place.  Throw in a bolt and wiggle the spike until the bolt threads.  Then turn it into place.  A final drive going back onto a Sexton can't be that different.  Good memories and very satisfying work.
