I use this to get my negatives in focus. I get the camera in the general area with my tripod column then use this to fine tune the focus without adjusting the lens.
If you already have a good 50mm lens, I would suggest this combo to get started:
Decent set of extension tubes
Ring Flash
Optional:
Tripod Macro Focusing Rail
Autofocus systems can struggle doing macro with extension tubes so I would suggest manual focusing. Also, try and run a fairly small aperture (f/8 to f/16).
Putting a ten dollar extension tube on a 300 dollar lens on and off every day is good way to be shoppping for a new lens in six months. People say the air in between the camera and lens doesn't have a brand. That's true, but the electrical connectors do. If your electric contacts get overworn, then your lens might not focus, or expose correctly.
Another option is sell the 60 and get a used 100 mm, on a crop factor you'll be going from 90 to 150 ( effective focal length ) that'll help a lot more than extension tubes.
All that said I use a 25mm canon extension ring, and have had bad experiences with at least 3 different non canon brands
