Not recommended. DOF cannot be done by the numbered angles and/or DOF charts. DOF is done by looking at the ground glass with a loupe and tilting/stopping down until what you want in focus, is in focus. This is based on exactly 49 years of doing this - I was taught this at Brooks Institute of Photography in 1959 and it has served me really well since then.
But if you want it as a gadget to occupy some unused space, then I guess it would be good.
