How?

I refuse to take my car to a garage if I can do it myself.

you need a proper camber reader on some tracker gauges matey, its best to go to a garage to get it set right mate, it shouldn't cost you much mate. we have a camber reader at my work its accurate to nearest tenth of a degree. we have done a few cars with it like mazda rx8 etc, you might as well get a full geometry setup done mate

I dont wanna be funny, but I dont trust most garages when it comes to setting things up properly.
So Id rather skip paying a garage if I can do it myself.

Already doing the tracking so thought I might as well do the camber too

there are some decent garages out there that actually do the work, i know as i work for one of them, its just others that let it all down to be con artists and con customers into thinking that they have actually done the work when they actually haven't. remember you are the customer and therefore you have the right to witness them doing the work, i have had numerous people watch me do it, and i do it all the time everytime, and they haven't come back and complained! you usually get a 30 day guarantee with the alignment so if you feel something isn't right go back and tell them to do it again!

£25 later and I will have my own camber setting up tool.

Easy peasy.

It does need to be used with the car on a completely level surface though.

Shouldn't be too difficult to make one yourself if you don't want to buy one.

Making a digital one myself... and level surfaces can be overcome easy too. Will have it done soon.
