    Nut Cracker

    Totally different from my normal project, this one is a bit nuts!

    Having broken a few of the nut crackers that you can buy from the convenience store I thought I would have a go at something different. Inspired by the time of year and just a break from the norm.

    This is made from
    • 1/4" thick mild steel plate
    • 1/2" BSW thread
    • Brass inner sleeve for nut that is threaded
    • Bolt machined from hex mild steel
    • 1" diameter thumb and finger grips


    Is it interesting enough that you want a few dimensions?
