As Doug says, you definitely need to figure out how you are going to check alignment. A fixture is not enough. The beam style alignment checkers aren't ideal, but they work. For a while, I was using the table of my milling machine. You also need a height gauge and a good square. Drafting triangles are very square, but you have to be careful with them.
