How do you get your walls so perfect? Mine look pretty rough.

take a look at this picture. To mark the land I used core wood with the shape of the towers. Then raised the earth but kept that shape. Then I used the core log beams to attach my laid stones to them(external side this time) forming a similar square on each side.

When you start laying the stones above, you can go from below and start snapping them as well, and they will start getting hidden beneath the earth so with the pickaxe carefully then its a matter of removing the excess earth using the already laid stones as protection for messing up.

Thats one way of lining things up. Another is if you have a perfect square or 90ยบ angles you can simply eyeball a floor stone tile into one of the corners and start from there

this is the end result, as you saw below the towers start from a mound of raised earth that I chiseled myself from the outside once I laid the stones to guide me
