That looks like a very interesting tool. It seems to account for the things not usually accounted for with home steering measurements, (mostly with the caster measurements).
Be careful with the toe arms. It looks like they would be easy to knock out of true.
Turning plates are easy to make. Use two pieces of sheet metal, with a little grease spread between them, like a peanut butter sandwich; one set for each front wheel.
It's best to be on a flat concrete surface.
Let us know how it works.

It may seem like a lot to most people. For someone who likes to buy and use tools to avoid paying someone else to do the work, it's not that bad.
You just have to keep in mind, the measurements you get will not be to 2 decimal places like an alignment machine.
