I have the leg and the chop made. I read the instructions 3x but I cannot find the exact location to drill the two 3/8" holes for the mounting pins. It stresses the importance of drilling these holes perfectly but doesn't provide a precise location in the instructions. Does anyone have this location?

7/8" from the top of the mortise, and 3/4" from the face of the leg/back of the chop. It's in a detail drawing on page 29 of the instructions dated April 2018.

edit: when I built mine it was an exercise in remembering their advice to read the instructions several times. I had to go finding this myself.
