Shouldn't be rocket science, the guy in the video seems to have it figured out. The DT clamp should have at least a piece of hose like the BB cradle if not a contoured piece to protect the frame when secure.

These types of holding devices can need adjustment to hold well and may need a latch of some sort to keep from letting go when bumped or shifted, the design seems sound from here and I can guarantee I would have it working well if it were in my shop.

You may need to think outside the box a little.
