if you plan to drill out plate to the original tie down profile,
I would suggest you find top dead center of your exposed chord.
come straight down ~3/8" and punch referance. from that referance measure 3/4" at 45 degress to make next punch.
use uni bit to dril lower mark to 3/4"
then drill upper mark as much as possible
use grinder to finish up
