I'm always thinking of things to make as presents and Christmas is coming up, plus my wife's birthday is in January. We ran out of nuts for the sweet potato casserole yesterday, so had to send the youngest out to the porch with a hammer and a bagged of unshelled nuts, which got me thinking about making a nut cracker. Not much experience with them other than childhood memories of aching hands and annoying walnuts using the pliers type, so I'll probably skip that sort.
Anybody got a style they like?
There's the lever type (I like this one alot)

the lever/ shuttle type

and the nut torture device like so

any other ideas I'm missing? Preferences? The 1st and 3rd would be relatively straightforward to make.
