Here's a slideshow of what I put together last night in about an hour:

How well do your improvised hooks hold? On the Amazon case, the upper hook is on a spring, so it locks in place but can be slid down to release. I suppose with your Moleskine elastic band it stays secure while folded, and gravity handles the job when you're holding it open and upright.
Once they are clicked in place they hold pretty well, although that tends to take a few attempts. The top one is the one that really fits nicely, whereas the bottom one really only stays if the top one is nicely secure. This was the first prototype of this. I'm going to actually try to machine a more accurate piece from some pre picked and bent metal, later when I have more time to tinker with it.
