   If I were grandpa, I'd want to take it home with me.

   Great design and execution!!!

   Something seems a little fishy about the number of thumbs up you have. All in such a short time????

   Nicely done. I'm interested in the size as I have some black walnut and some black walnuts. Any hints?

   Howdy Nate,
   The thing is made from 1" thick stock and nearly a foot long stem to stern. . .
   P.S. that's a walnut in it's jaws. . .

   John -

   Thanks for the input. I doubt Dad will get one this year for Christmas - probably next year.

   Great looking and original. Seems simple to use also. I like it. We may see it in stores next holiday season!

    I love it!!!! My Grandpa always had nuts in the shell for the holidays most of which we gathered ourselves. Gotta do that again next year.

    Very nicely done, Huckleberry. Are you taking orders? I would love to have one for my father.

    Dear Huckleberry, I've made many nutcrackers using maple wooden threads with a cross grain internal thread, but your design looks more efficient and easier to use. Did you let your grandfather keep it? Bet you did!
