Need help with a G80-1800 plate

I've been looking for a G80-1800 mounting plate, but the only one I could find that supports my layout is the 185x plate from this GH thread:
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=42063.0
.
I'd prefer to directly purchase the plate, but could also try to get it cut myself if I can get my hands on the CAD files. That might be a bit tough though, since both users who ran that GB seem to have been inactive for a while now.
What do?

You could design your own and have it laser cut somewhere. That seems to be the best option.
Have you already modded the case?

No I haven't done anything to the board other than some cleaning.
I
could
design my own, if I knew how. And this seems a rather intricate plate, so that option is very low on my list.

Designing a plate is not hard thanks to swill.
All you need is to design your layout in the
KLE
then import the raw data into
swill's builder
and download the design.
I assume your layout looks more or less like
this

I've seen that tool, but that only gets me halfway. There need to be a whole bunch of cuts and wholes on the plate to fit the 1800 case, as you can see in the link I posted above.
I'll still keep that in mind though.
