    Anyone Ever Seen A "Davy Crackit"?

    I found a box of random metal objects on my way home yesterday. While sorting through it I found this:



    Had to google "aluminum squirrel nutcracker" to find out his name is Davy Crack It! I will try to sell it but I won't be upset if it doesn't

    You lift the tail, put a nut in his mouth, push tail down and voila! shelled nut!

    METAL IS MY MISTRESS...PLEASE DON'T TELL MY WIFE!

    That is cool! Personally I'd keep it for a conversation piece! But that is just me!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I have one just like it. Word of advice, do not bring it into the house. If you already did, never refer to the wife as a squirrel. Believe me the results are not good.

    Unfortunately shipping to the states is a costly PITA Sirs. Especially for commercial. I looked them up on your fave site ebay and you can score one for about $20 stateside.

    What Sledge said.

    I want it, an glad to help a member, but I dislike ebay a lot.

    I'd rather deal with the hassle of customs.

    Yes..I like to cut my nose off to spite my face.

    Change your mind you know how to reach me!

    Sirscrapalot - Isn't it wrong to be male an have a nut cracker collection...

    I'd have a hard time selling something that cool.

    The only thing cooler than an aluminum squirrel would be one made out of copper.
