Screw it shut with a shim to simulate clamping distance?

With the slot in the band I think that the lathe would just chew it up rather than boring it out.
If the band was solid then no problems, but using the TIG to en-solidate it before boring, then cutting the slot back in would FUBAR the anno finish that we are trying to preserve.
