I was with you until the part about the string. What's critical about the
string dimension being 3-4' given there's no reference point?

It isn't critical. It just gives the can some 'swinging room'.
Contrary to what I thought when I shot my first one, it doesn't just
squirt out. The first one was resting on the ground and jumped all
over a 3-4 foot circle spraying in very direction.
