It's an interesting idea, Patrick...
I made my conversion out of plywood which also makes a relatively lightweight camera.
The weight is acceptable for a 4x5" camera.
I focus & shoot with my left hand holding the camera grip on the left; my right hand on the focusing knob/shutter; my right shoulder supporting the camera from its bottom.
