I defer to those who have invested in that.

For myself, no(hence I do not have that).

I have a dial indicator gauge that I have used for alignment. I do not have the DVD but there are a lot of videos from sawdust sessions that go over these alignments. I don't think this package is that great a value. My two cents.
