Tayda Template for the usb?

Hey guys. I know this should probably go in the Tayda drill area but I figured i would put it here since it is Terrarium specific. I found the drill template for the A side but I would like to get coordinates for usb access on the side so I don't have to hack up a new powder coated enclosure. It looks like most of the folks here just did it after the fact and I despise drilling enclosures now since Tayda has made me lazy. Also, since they can do shapes it seems like a nice touch. Thanks in advance.
 
If you don't have the template if someone could confirm if the usb port is inline with the bottom row of pots or slightly above them? It’s hard to see in pics and I don't have a board in front of me. Also how far up from the bottom is the usb port. I am going to make the area a little larger for fudge space but i wanted to get in the ballpark.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but did you ever find out the coordinates for a side USB hole for the Terrarium? I'm starting my build of it and would also like to have a nice access hole for the USB port. Thanks!
 
I haven't tested it. This was my best guess. I just haven't circled back around to it. Also you will probably want to change the power supply hole.

 
Thank you! I appreciate the link.

I had found this YouTube video showing a DIY cutout ( YouTube Link ) and so I took a screenshot and used some measurement software to get a rough idea of the placement and size of the hole:

This error-prone measurement method puts the center of the cutout at 8.35 mm off of center (your link has it at 8.27 mm) so that's pretty close! I think I'll use your measurement and make the hole a little wider, just in case.

Thanks again.
