For an 8" f6, really a cap will get collimation very close. I think the Astro baby site talks about them and really all you need is an old film canister (if you can find one these days).
Lasers are great BUT can be misleading, I have seen a lot of scopes badly out of whack but the laser shows all is correct.

From talking to owners of Skywatchers Flex Dobs, they are a really well made product.

Hope to hear some reports about how you get on.
