At a pinch you can do this with a hacksaw and a drill, although if you
have access to metal work gear you'll be able to do a nicer jo
I've done it in a hurry by hacksawing off the existing top (including
the key hole gap to allow the clamp to tighten). You then drill a new
hole about 3 cm from the top and cut two lines down using a hack saw to
form a new key hole.
This is all a lot easier if you have a vice to hold the frame in while
working on it. The other useful thing is to use a hole punch or
similar to create a tiny gro0ve for the drill bit to sit in, so that it
doesn't skitter around on the curved surface when you are trying to
drill the hole that forms the bottom of the key hole.
