I don't know, I've never seen macadamia. We do not grow such nuts.

Macadamias are arguably the toughest nut to crack. In the USA, most macadamias come from the state of Hawaii.

says it takes 300 psi to crack one.

demonstrates a form of cracker.

The trick is to manage to crack the extremely hard shell but not damage the spherical nut within.

Considering the large pressure needed and the finesse needed to crack the shell and not damage the nut, can your cracker handle them?

Why not just make one from scraps -------------

Oh, the Macadamia tree is an AUSTRALIAN native, just them damned yankees stole them ----------
