I took the portafilter rest/forks off and needed to remove the base plate to get the nuts back on the screws.

I've taken the "obvious" screws out (the big one and the two rear feet).

the last 3 seem to hold on interior parts NOT the plate.

The wires on the reverse of the plate hold the plate solid to the base. A little gentle "coaxing" with a flat blade will move the plate away enough to grab it with finger tips and open enough room to get your hands inside to hold the nuts while you put the rest/fork screws back on.
