You already have the knife and cutting board in service just to clean
the cloves.

Possibly a garlic press is capable of squeezing all the juice or essence out
of a clove without having to clean away the outer shell. That would make it
quite a bit faster I think.

Hey, don't any of you other woodworkers out there do any cooking? What
exactly does a garlic press do?
