hey 3ft...
what about cutting a larger hole, say quarter sized, dime whatever, then covering that larger hole with some opaque material that is softer, like electrician's tape. then poking your hole in the tape with something smaller, like a needle. then you could make more than one try, you know, do-overs if it was not satisfactory. you could easily control the piercing with the softer material.
another idea. if you divided the can with a partition and made two separate image areas, could you do a stereoscopic pair of images? maybe just two cans lashed together.
I do like your images, they are very artistic. I would like to try this myself. at almost 48 deg lat we get considerable movement of the sun in the sky south to north in the springtime.
