Such a pleasing chubby aspect ratio. I love that you made a steel ergonomic toothpick. Those fat ones remind me of some weird arc melted Bulk Metallic glasses that I helped make once.

I''ll get some photos of the setup and the whole bike to show you. Yes, had you not had the tools to make this simple part there was not many more options. I was trying to think of other options. One would have been to use a reveresed clamp on housing stop and moved it to the downtube just above the bottom bracket and then run bare cable up to the housing stop at the top of the downtube. Or I could have run a full hosing and lots of zipties (gag). Thanks again for making this little piece Alex, repurposing the rack tab was a great idea.
