I have what I call a "selfie cable". Other people ("newbies" maybe) might call it a 6' cable release....

I would be nervous attaching my 4x5 to a piece of wood like that. I love the idea though. I could just extend my tripod legs and hold on to the bottom ends. That would be heavy though.  :o

I have an old-school threaded self-timer that I bet would work on my 6x9 (a.k.a. Pocket Graphic).

You know, that is the hallmark of any new product... create a solution to a problem nobody knew about and then tell them that they really need to address this problem...

And then after you develop and print it, you post it on large format facebook (LFFB)! I.e., you paste it into a book and go visit all of your friends and put it in their faces :)
