Draw a cross on the bottle cap. Mark on each end of the cross 1 centimeter on the side of the bottle cap. Seen from above, the upper and lower approximately 3 millimeters from the top, the left and right 5 millimeters from the upper edge.
Use the soldering iron to open the markings on the sides. These are about 11 millimeters wide.
