I am a bit skeptical about claims of precision where it may not be  
needed. I suspect you will not see much difference in the image from  
a DIY camera and one with a laser drilled hole you pay some money for  
except for some convenience and your pocketbook. Inexpensive cameras  
have even had square apertures.  I could be wrong though.

So if you wanted a project and you go the expensive route why don't  
you continue with the home made version and compare them?
