Nutcracker cnc/waterjet

thingiverse

ATTENTION: Unfortunately, the original version did not meet expectations due to its weak point where the front part transitions to the handle and the softness of aluminum, which resulted in a construction that couldn't crack nuts effectively. To overcome this issue, I made significant improvements by modifying the design slightly and using brass instead of aluminum. You can find the Nutcracker II here. The layered version was inspired by a wonderful performing nutcracker's geometry, combining aluminum and oak parts screwed together. Nuts were used to secure the screws on the handles, while threads were tapped into the aluminum parts for added stability. This build was accomplished using a desktop cnc-machine from Stepcraft, which cut 7 mm thick oak wood with a 2 mm spiral toothed flute and 3 mm aluminum with a 2 mm 2-edged flute.
