Question about the last and lasting

I wanted to make some 270° Stitchdown boots. In all the videos I saw on making something like that the leather got tucked under the lasting board from heel to the waist and got secured by nails. The problem I have is the metal plate on my lasts is only on the heel, so I can’t clinch the nails on the waist. How would I secure that in addition to the glue?
