I just ran my finger around the edge of mine on that end and I don't feel anything like that.

Thanks for the input. I'd suspect it wasn't stock more if the "nail" was more standard. Doesn't have a point on the end, weird. I was thinking this probably would make a lousy pressure relief system, since the hole in the can is so small, unlikely to vent enough pressure to make a difference. Its weird. Why would someone modify the can in this way? Also the hole is on the edge, which would be a stronger area than more centered.

Was thinking maybe it could be a water drain... but its not positioned at the low point. Doesn't make sense.
