Answer 1

You can buy an extension cable at any photographic shop.

or

Buy a flash trigger that detects the flash from your camera to fire an additional flash.

or

A radio release. A box fits on your camera's flash shoe and a box for each flash. When the camera fires so do all the flashes. Not too expensive on ebay.

Answer 2

Three feet is long enough ... how long is your arm?

For longer distances, mount the flash off camera and use the SB-600 as a remote flash, triggered by your on camera flash set a lower setting.

I have one and have used it twice in three years.
