If you're not already set on having a female jack and a swappable cord, consider just chopping a USB cable, routing it though a rubber grommet, and soldering it into the board. Much easier to drill one hole of a known size than muck...

Here are photos of the arrangement I used, and described earlier.

Thanks for providing such a great kit Guzzler! Here is a photo of one of my completed kits, all cased up. If you are using USB power, I highly recommend this enclosure; it machined cleanly (two holes), it seems bomb-proof, and it...
