Cherry and walnut. Five coats of food grade tung oil. Worked great. Made the beans flat

Did you turn both pieces? Or some other process for the disc?

Turned the handle. Used the band saw and router for the disk.

Only before putting the beans in the mouth. All food goes through the ass unless you have a bypass installed.

How long do you soak them before boiling?

When I make pintos i soak them for at least 2 hours, but I pressure cook them. I made some for my Pathfinder game late Sunday, i soaked for 20 hours. They came out perfect. I also add baking soda to help break down the protein shell, i mostly do this with older beans.

These were beans that I canned. So it was a overnight soak, change out the water, 30 minute boil, skim off the top, put into jars, can for 75 minutes which also finished cooking them.

For beans I'm using immediately instead of canning I typically do either an overnight so or a 1 hour soak after boiling for 5 minutes. Then I will change out the water and boil for 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours depending on the bean and desired tenderness.

I don't really trim my nails and despite the physical abuse I put my hands through they don't like to break on their own so they tend to get long enough to piss off women who pay a lot of money to have long nails.

When my wife moved in and started eating the meals I cook she started complaining about how much harder it was getting to trim her nails. I didn't say anything. Eventually she figured out that it was a sign of an improved diet.

Belt sander is set up for 60 grit. That would leave some rough edges that would mess up my knitting.

At least paint them with your favourite colour. It's free real estate :D

That's just more maintenance I'm not going to do. It's one thing to have jagged long nails. It's another to have chipped polish.

Yeah, obviously a nice oil finish would better bring out the natural qualities of your nails. Would you paint the Mona Lisa?

How could I? I'm not Leonardo DiVinci. What a strange request.

I find rubio monocoat to be the best finish for a long lasting nail coat.
