The next and approaching final step was to position the cable guides and drill the holes. Here is the frame with the derailleur and one brake cable guide in place.
I put a modified 1/2 cable guide on the chain stay next.
The next step was tricky. I had to position and drill a hole through the frame behind the BB for the front derailleur cable. After placing a Shimano BB guide on the frame I marked the entrance hole on the bottom.
After drilling through the far side guided roughly by eye I glued in a 1/8" dia brass tube.
I'll trim and sand the ends flush once the glue cures. Here is another photo for Neil, the weight prior to cable guides.
I have to modify my rivet gun to reach down into the cable guide pockets. Once that's done the guides will be glued and riveted in place.
