Adding bottle bosses on bike

Hi,
I don't know if this is the correct forum for this question, but I got a vintage shogun selectra that I use for commuting and on group rides, recently I been sticking more to the advanced riders and I have started riding longer distances 50k+, my problem is that my bike only has 1 bottle mount, which causes me to fall behind when I need to stop at a gas station to refill it.

I was planning on adding another in the downtube but my drill is too big and I couldn't find a 90 degree adapter on my local hardware stores. So i thought about adding them to the fork. Would it be safe?
Also I would be adding threaded rivet nuts since I don't have a brazing setup.

The bike has a Tange infinity front triangle and tangaloy fork and rear stays based on another thread.
