Got a bit further this weekend. Drilled out the back of the forks for the recessed brakes (Shimano 105s that polished up rather well) and the rear chainstay bridge was easy in the end - ran the drill through it and made up a little extra bit of collar to fill out the hole a bit. Also sanded and painted the fluted seatpost (paint not quite dry in pic so those brush marks have since disappeared):
This little brake tool is one of the best things I have ever bought:
So, almost there. Couple more pics of the finished article to come tonight...
