PSTricks | Draw soda can seen from above

Post by svend_tveskaeg »

Hi all.

I would like to draw a soda can seen from above (see attached picture) using PSTricks. The inner and outer 'rings' are of course not difficult to draw but I am compeletely lost when it comes to outlining the hole and the metal "thingy" to open the can with and the decorations on top of the can.

Any ideas will be appreciated!

P.S. TikZ is not an option for me.
