Yeah, stack the ETs and experiment with the TC between the ETs and the lens and between the ETs and the camera. If you start to get vignetting, then plan to crop that out.
I think of it as the "sophisticated man's macro" not "poor man's".
That MFD isn't particularly outstanding (my 500mm is about 12-ft) but with stacked ETs and a 2.0x TC, it might work pretty well. You'll need a well lit subject and pump the ISO to 800.
