I thought about this and was about to order them when I realized the thickness is probably too large for the strap duplicators. They're made for skins best I can tell. I don't know for sure though. They might work in this case. It's moot now.
I got it solved and am very happy with the results. Here's what I did. I clamped the longerons to the gusset according to the plans. I match drilled the longerons to the skins according to plans. Then I skipped drilling the gusset and did steps 7 through 10. Then I marked the gussets and longerons where they were clamped together to make sure the don;t move and I removed the skins. After verifying that nothing moved, I simply drilled up from the bottom with a long bit. Trivial at that point.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
