Who does not like to gnaw hazelnuts or hazelnuts at leisure? That's just peeling it from the shell is very tiring. Especially if you need to peel a lot of nuts.
However, any problem will always have a solution. For example, the author proposes to make with his own hands a simple tool for quickly cracking hazelnut shells.
With this home-made tool you can clean a large amount of hazelnuts in a very short time.
First of all, it is necessary to cut at an angle two pieces of a profile pipe with a section of 80 * 80 mm. They then need to be welded to each other, so that in the end a L-shaped workpiece is obtained.
The main stages of work
After that, you need to cut a small piece of a thick-walled pipe with a length of about 70 mm. Using a grinder, you need to make grooves around the circumference.
It is not easy to find such a thick-walled pipe, so it will be easier to choose a blank of the desired diameter, and then drill a longitudinal hole in it.
At the next stage, with the help of a grinder, it is necessary to cut off all excess metal on a thick-walled pipe, so that as a result a sleeve with four ribs is obtained. It is mounted inside the profile pipe.
Next, the master makes the missing parts and proceeds to assemble the fixture. "Paws" are made from a metal strip, which must be welded to the walnut-cracker body.
