It "ovals" quite a bit as it stretches -- I think you're right, it would make sense to punch the holes after shrinking (if you wire at the very end of your build process). I wire before priming, so the swivel or screw-eye is already there -- though I could re-drill and place the belly screw-eye at the very end of the process...that might be better.
