I made a pinhole film that used only a cardboard box and pinhole, just like you use in photography.

Tom Comerford is really the expert on the pinholes for Bolexes. He produced a little pamphlet on it a few years back and a number of lovely films. He teaches at the School of the Art Institute in Chicago and may be willing to answer your questions via email.
In my own experiments I used an extension tube that I capped with black wrap with a hole in it made with a straight pin. I measured my focal length (the distance from the front of the lens/black wrap to the film plane) and knew (roughly) the size of the pinhole because my straight pins were .65mm (they are for sewing and thus precise). Then I used the following formula
f-stop=focal length/pinhole diameter
I ended up with an f-stop around 90 so I shot outside on a sunny day with plus-x reversal and had very good results.
Hope this helps,
Kathryn
