Template for Cambro lid

Is there a template for a pattern I can cut into a Cambro lid for the Joule?

Has anyone found a template for cutting into a Cambro lid. I too have purchased the lid for the Cambro and would like to cut a hole for the Joule. Because of the cord it looks like it will be at least 3in in diameter to fit. I may try to do a smaller hole for the Joule and knock out a small tab for the cord.

Has anyone done a custom lid for their Joule yet? I'm curious how it went.

Thanks. I will wait for the Joule to arrive before worrying about it. I cut a Cambro lid for the Anova. Perhaps it will work. The material was like thick Tupperware and not prone to breakage.

By the way, I purchased a Nexlevl magnet from Amazon. I can set it under a nonferrous container to hold the Joule in place. With the magnet under the Cambro I need only to cut the round hole in the lid.

Not sure if there is a template specifically for Joule (there should be!), but we know the diameter of Joule from the specs page, 1.85 inches or 47.0 mm. You could get a hole saw drill bit that's slightly larger than that diameter to cut a hole and use some sort of linear saw to cut the remaining bit. When I did a lid for an Anova I used a band saw to cut off the last bit, but a hacksaw probably works.

I've seen people mention on here that the LIPAVI lid for the Nomiku Classic is a close match for the Joule: https://www.amazon.com/C10L-NO-LIPAVI-Container-immersion-circulator/dp/B019UIO8IM

I read people warning that Cambros are liable to shatter when cutting, but when I cut a lid for an Anova it didn't seem that troublesome at all. I used a drill press and a hole saw drill bit that looked like this:

I went slow and it cut into the polycarbonate rather gradually and predictably. The polycarbonate seemed to be rather malleable under the hole saw bit; I didn't think it was going to shatter at any point. I used some blue painters tape as reinforcement, but I don't think it helped much other than help prevent scuff marks.

No but be very careful with what type of bit you use to cut it, as that type of plastic can shatter very easily.
