Jim,
A lot of "pinholers" do this by drilling a large hole in an old body cap and mounting the pinhole over that. You might find that easier . . . just like changing lenses.

Don't forget the "pinhole" adage:
"f/128 and be there . . . an hour early."

Last night I wondered if I took a piece of aluminum foil, removed
the lens from my OM10, taped the foil over the lens mount and then punch a
hole in the foil with a pin.  Incredibly, I could see an image in the
viewfinder!  Faint, but clearly visible.  I'm going to try to take some
pictures with this odd combo and will report the results.  I'll put the
camera on a tripod, set it to auto, and fire it with a cable release.
