The Nutcracker

The Nutcracker was invented by Davy Gunfish and is a faster way to crack nuts and other things. A spring is attached to a stone block which sits over the nut. When a fire is started in the furnace, the tension on the spring is released, making the block fall on the nut. You then move the stone aside by hand and it reveals a cracked nut. When the fire is put out the spring will cool and become tense again, making it move to its first position. It is not limited to cracking nuts, but can also break locks and that sort. If you find that the nut inside the shell is being squashed, you can adjust the speed at which the block falls. Just put the block on one of the 3 stools with the cracker. Stool #1 will crack the whole nut, and is mostly used for breaking locks. Stool #2 is used for cracking and breaking things somewhat softer than a lock. Stool #1 will crack your nut perfectly and will crack other foods.
