Introduction: Cracking Nuts Like a Plumber

About: Failure is not the opposite of success, it's part of success.

Sometimes, when I'm stressed, I need to do something crazy.

And so I start eating nuts.

Yes, I could run a marathon.

Eat a whole cow.

Invade Germany on my own.

Or just swim the Atlantic.

But I prefer eating nuts.

There's just one problem.

I'll explain.

Step 1: Additional Stress

The problem is that, when I'm stressed, I can't open those nuts correctly.

All I get is mash.

You can't believe how much additional stress thàt gives me.

Step 2: One Valve, One Washer

Today I feel better.

I managed to eat nuts without additional stress.

And so my stress level is getting down.

Wanna know?

All you need is a 40mm high pressure valve - so glad I got one laying around.

I hope the fire department has managed to stop that leak.

Whatever, get that valve and add a washer on one side to close the bottom.

That's all. Really.

Step 3: Insert Your Nuts

Drop one nut in the valve, make a 90° turn and recover what once was a nut.

Maybe it'll be crushed, but with a little bit of practice you'll be able to crack those nuts like a boss.

And not like a plumber.

Easy.
