Hi and thanks! I've uploaded an image to my album if anyone is interested in taking a look.

I would either use a bigger seat tube or a smaller top tube. Your tubes are strange sizes, standard is 28.6 and 31.7. The issue with 31.7 is availability of seat posts, although you can shim them.
OK, yeah the seat tube is double butted with an outside butt on the top end so that's why it's 29.6. It's 28.6 at the BB shell. Smaller top tube is what I'm leaning towards actually.

How do you ovallize them evenly? Do you have a mold you put them in or do you do it by hand? Also, before of after mitering? =)

Appreciate the help!
