PIC 1 now take the cleaned up larger can
PIC 2 punch a hole in the center big enough to get the point of a scissors or tinsnips into it.
PIC 3,4 start a curved cut out to the edge of the crease on the bottom it makes a convenient template but if you want to you could make a smaller hole.
PIC 5 cut the center section out {use the file and sandpaper to clean up the edge of this hole it is razor sharp and most likely barbed.{ i hope you cleaned the can well cause here the most likely spot for a bit of gratuitous bleeding}
PIC 6 ,7,8 use the large can opener to open a triangular flap in the side of the can .then do it seven more times evenly spaced.(be careful here too and sand up the edges]
