Yeah, my understanding is that it's better to make the big hole and
then have the pinhole in shim material.
I could do similar with my Arca Swiss 4x5 monorail but it's a bit
heavy to lug around for pinhole. If I ever feel the urge to go LF with
pinhole I think I'll be either making a body that takes film backs or
just go for the Zeroimage 4x5.
