The first thing I did was drill and slot the back of the seat tube. The slot may be a little short but it clamps well.
I then drilled holes for the down tube cable stops followed by bonding with DP 420 and two rivets each.
Finally I carefully drilled a hole right through the frame behind the BB to guide the front derailleur cable and seal the frame. Next time I'll get some titanium tubing to avoid possible corrosion issues. I'll trim the tube flush once the glue sets.
A final light sanding all over with 600grit, a cleaning with alcohol and it's ready for the painters.
