If precision was the only motivator for this project, I think they would have either bought a sine plate or used some kind of stress-relieved steel, hardened it, and ground it to final dimensions. Realistically it will probably provide very good accuracy compared to no sine plate at all, albeit worse than a professional sine plate.
