It works well, especially for a quick timing check or timing set by the side of the road.
You don't really need any "base" to use it.
Turn the engine over until the timing pin drops in the dimple, like normal timing procedure. Loosen the cam screw on top a little bit and use the wrench to turn the cam 1 or 2 times clockwise (to take slack out of the drive gears). Just as the wrench side begins to contact the 4th little pin on the top of the distributor body, you tighten up the cam screw. That's it!
You can leave the cam screw tight and put the wrench on the cam, then gently rotate it clockwise to check the timing any time you want.
The position of the timing lever is not important when using this wrench.
A very cool design.
