A further thought on string pods; use a couple of knots instead of a loop to
allow infinite adjustment (crouching or kneeling, for example). Mine has a loop
only on the camera end to attach to the ring on the bottom of a Bogen quick
release plate. A spring clip would be faster but I haven't bothered to put one
on.

Thread the string's foot loop through a piece of small rubber or vinyl
tubing (a la automotive vacuum line or aquarium air line tubing), and the
loop will stay open so you can get your foot into it more easily.
Just a thought. I'm going to make one of these, too. It's certainly worth
trying.
