Thanks. I put them in a pretty hot fire. Then smashed them up. They seemed more brittle

i know people who bake them first. Its a good alternative.

I wish i had the funds to get a mill to grind them up as its very labor intensive, With US cost of time, it would definitely be better to buy a mill.

Oz, have you looked into a water-buffalo-powered mill?

Oz, have you looked into a water-buffalo-powered mill?

i think the cost of the mill would still be prohibative - great idea though!!

Congrats on the new kids and hope the little one does well.

Good luck with your papers and schooling.

Maybe something along the lines of the old type grist mills but with a slight twist
to make a hammer type that drops onto the shells.....Mozza turns the wheel that raises
the hammer to a catch release to drop the hammer block onto the shells.........just a wild idea.
