I'm not sure this would be worth the trouble.  If I understand the offer 
correctly, the film base is thinner than is usually used for 4X5 sheet film. 
  This is typical of roll films, which must be wound onto a spool.  I think 
it might be better to just use 4X5 sheet film which is intended for the 
purpose. RKS
