I crack black walnuts in my big-mutha bench vise. They are amazingly
tough; I'm amazed that the squirrels can chop through the shells.

Try picking a squirrel up sometime. HSS has nothing on their
chompers ;-)

My Dad use to whack them with a small hammer. Had a block of wood with
plastic skirt attached around the perimeter. Did this in the kitchen,
drove my Mom crazy. Glad I was away at work...

What did he do with the fur and blood and stuff?


2 points to you. You beat me.


(Grin!!)


The mental picture of Dad sitting at the kitchen table.. wacking them
with a small hammer and Mom cringing with each blow as she was baking
cookies... etc etc...got me laughing so hard the dogs came running....
