Would like to share this method I tried with success.
First part I read on another thread to remove the cap worked great.
To remove the caps, I froze the can for a few days.
Then I immersed the top cap in boiling water. Used a pair of rubber gloves wrapped around the cap with a set of channel locks for a grip.
GENTLY twist them off. They came off very easy.
Next, I thought of a neat way to get at the insides.
Invert the can on a stationary belt sander and sand lightly.
Took less than 2 minutes.
No digging, drilling, cutting etc.
You can even solder the piece you removed back in there some how if you really want to be cool.
