Watching the wood be smoothed, cut and carved is so satisfying
Carving is too
I enjoyed this particular video so much! I have been collecting Nutcrackers for over 40 years. My Late Husband always gave me a new one (or two) for my birthday which in in late November. I presently own over 370 of them... It varies from extremely inexpensive to several hundred dollars. I have Nutcrackers from 4” to 60” tall! Never mind the “Elf on a Shelf”... I had my children convinced that my Nutcrackers were spying on them for Santa! As much as l love them, l would gladly give them all up for one more Christmas with my beloved.
Please don’t ignore pain... Pancreatic Cancer is a silent killer. It’s not always your Gallbladder, please always get a second opinion! Happy Holidays and may we all enjoy a Happy & Healthy New Year.

Thanks for sharing
What the fuck is wrong wit hyou
I love How It’s Made!
Seriously thank you youtube for keeping this show alive for me!! And for being able to upvote and reply to comments years old!
Me too!
This channel is so educational..makes me realize how little I know about the world..
Nutcrackers are my holiday obsession 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Now I want to see them make the life size one.
They should use it for capital punishment. Judge: Crack this man's balls bailiff!
You should check out the Leavenworth Washington nutcracker museum. They actually have a life size one
Do they use them to crack coconuts?
You missed chance to call video “Making nutcrackers *IN A NUTSHELL* ”
Bruh 🤦🏼♀️
True
@@HarleyQuinn-vv7qk bruh 🤦♂️
Ahhaha wow 😂
BOO! 🤣🤣🤦
I love collecting all kinds of nutcracker toys- I also have some at home
Wooow ! You can do anything with the right tools at hand !
I used to sell Christian Ulbricht nutcrackers, along with other German brands. Over half of the Ulbricht nutcrackers and smokers we'd receive would have detached limbs, trim and accessories. They REALLY need to use a better glue. I'd have to go to town with the wood glue just to make them saleable. Otherwise, they looked great ... loved that the wood grain showed through the strain or translucent paint.
@TraviTrail I bought nothing.
You want a nutcracker pal? Talk to my wife...
You so funny 😂
lol 😂
oh no
Ouch!
I don't care what they say. Don't use your nice nutcracker to crack nuts or you will break it. Trust me. I have.
So have I
Was it German?
@@grapeapeductape2489 why does it matter if it is German.
I use the nuts to crack the nutcracker.
Because German nutcrackers are of a higher quality
when i visit most Goodwill stores i make it a point to grab one or two nutcrackers everytime i see them now i have a bunch of them
and my nieces & nephews love staring at them on my christmas shelving!😊🎄🎅🏻
Una hermosura ,gracias.
I love this stuff nutcrakers..We got in croatia a store with xmas stuff and nutcrackers..i like this👌👌👌🎅💂♂️💂♂️and it so expensive😑
Tea Zidic Small nutcracker ornaments can be bought in American dollar stores after Xmas for $ .50 apiece. There are collectible nutcrackers that are expensive but most nutcrackers cost $10 or less here.
I own one that I found at a thrift store and the only thing broke on his was his arm which I fixed.
merry Christmas 🎄 ❄️
Germany has some of the best craftsmanship. Honestly, out of the whole world it's the Germanic countries that put the most time and effort into the quality of their work instead of solely focusing on quantity with cheap materials for some extra bucks.
That’s so true
Yea, well, ya can't beat Afrika for straw huts with no windows. One room/one story. Technology.
True and Australian aswell
Japan
Moving the different parts between automated machines so the object can be automatically made is apparently the same thing as handmade...who knew?
Merry Christmas! 🎅🏻🎄❄️
Should be called "How a nutcracker torso is made"
The legs are a trade secret.
I love Nutcrackers.....I would have liked to gotten more for this year. However, my husband says that we have enough.
I love them, too. Been collecting them, since I was a kid.
Sweetie, that is a husbands job. - yours is to make the decision. He wont notice them in the end. Cant tell one from the other. Just slide them in, background the first year and then up front and center the next year. Repeat.
@@mortyjansen399 oh, but when a husband does so with tools, collectibles, guns, videogames or whatnots, then it becomes "irresponsible economic decisions"
@@SEELE-ONE Yea. And the same when hubby slides the neighbors 17 year old daughter in the bedroom, the wife gets pissed too.
My mom’s stepdad got me a nutcracker. I named him Albus.
So professional
I would watch these with my papaw all the time in his lap and now I miss him and I cant watch it with out him

From square, to octagonal, then round.
What's the purpose to octagonal form?
It's much easier to spin an octagon and form it into round form on a lathe.
Makes it closer to round than a square when they work on it. EZPZ
if it was square it would knock harder against the lathe bit, making it more likely to chip and splinter the wood. the lathe is a radial tool so a good rule of thumb is to get as close to radial as possible before taking the workpiece to a lathe. a square isn't so bad, but imagine an extreme example. say you had a piece of wood with a cross section shaped like a giant cross + with long arms. or something like a windmill shape. since the workpiece is spinning about its central axis, the angular momentum of the far surfaces of the piece is very high. so if something were to get smacked by it, head on, it would cause massive damage. with a roughly cylindrical shape, this doesn't happen - the full angular momentum of the piece is never transmitted to the bit, because the angle of incidence between the bit and the workpiece surface is very obtuse. there's still a lot of friction, but as you can probably imagine, you're cutting into it rather than knocking against it. but if you switched to a + shape, the arms of that + would swing with full force into the bit unless you approached the workpiece very slowly and precisely. it is possible to do that, but the reason they're able to do this so fast and automatically is because the bit is pretty aggressive.
to safely spin down a square into a cylinder would require slower, more deliberate movement, since the maximum angle of incidence would be much more acute for a square than for an octagon. a dodecagon would be even better. but you get diminishing returns at a certain point, since the number of cuts you need to make to add an edge continues to grow linearly, but the reduction in angle of incidence gets smaller with each edge. going from 4 sides to 8 reduces the angle of incidence from 90 to 45 degrees. a massive 45 degree difference, a full 50% reduction. going from 8 to 12 only bumps you down to 30 degrees, a relatively small difference of 15 degrees or just 1/3. and with every 4 sides you add that ratio gets smaller and smaller. so at a certain point you just have to make the leap from polygon to circle. and it seems like in most cases that's an octagon, though in some cases, like with plastics, a hexagon is used instead. it's not really necessary to have a 45 degree angle, 60 is good enough in most cases. but an octagon is easier to fashion in most cases: the most common starting materials that will end up being spun on a lathe are tubes, rods, bars, and planks. whether it's metal or wood, you usually either already have a cylinder, or you have a rectangular prism. and since a rectangular prism has 4 sides it's quite easy to turn it into an octagonal prism. but turning it into a hexagonal prism is more difficult and more wasteful, since 6 is not evenly divisible by 4. for that reason octagonal prisms have become a very common form for bars.
I love nutcrackers but what I never knew was that they are supposed to protect your house from evil spirits.
Exquisite 🎄✨
This is distressingly lacking in lever closeups or any kind of crafting authenticity, but surprisingly honest about supplying life-sized versions of these knicknacks, presumably for the purposes of executing rival drug lords or whoever has money to burn on such things in the most humiliating manner possible. *CRUNCH*
Love this
Yes, and if you go to Hobby Lobby they have ALL different types and sizes...I used to stock them.
Earth
We used to have rabbits, now we have nutcrackers
this ARTISTRYYYYY
Awesome Beautiful
Lovely
Rabbit fur? Let’s go faux please.
It was faux.
I want the soldier the drummer 🥁 and the king 👑
Where the poor mans drum is plugged in, is the real Nut cracker, Ouchers.
Cool, the mouse is my fave
imma make a porco nutcracker lmao
I would never want a life size one of these in my house but i sure am curious about how much that would cost
At least $2
600€ for 75 cm / 2.5 ft to 9,800€ for 180 cm / 6 ft. Latter one is probably custom design.
@@herrmannnachnahme9456 thanks, man. I want expecting an actual answer but I appreciate the information ☺️
@@herrmannnachnahme9456 almost ten thousand euro? You could buy a couple of cars for that
Very cute nutcrackers but take a lot of effort to make.
3:24 😂 is it only me who sees how much her hand is shaking?
Nice
I just want to know how did they make the lever thats all...im not into designs :(
Now in my mind is playing the song Nutrocker of Emerson Lake and Palmer
I HAD ONE OF THOSE IT PLAYED MUSIC
I just know, that nuttcracker really do nuttcracker..
I thought it was just a toy that you can play with..🤣🤣
Yes u can play with it.
Just watch ur nuts....
sasori prastyo - Many people just use them as toy soldiers.
The first 5 seconds of the video I said I WANT THAT SNOWMAN ONE, then you said hundreds of dollars and I said NO F**** WAY NOW.
Oh yes, they still make these kinds of videos
Do you think Nutcrackers have a good dental plan?
and here I thought it was a bad landing off the diving board 🤦♂️🤪🤣🤣
So ive noticed nutcrackers have something to do with your level of awareness. Most homes ive seen nutcrackers on seem very harmonious and peacefull.
Sweet
My mom thinks nutcrackers are creepy. I think they're a really cool folk craft.
Oh! He’s so beautiful! Wow!!
Collectibles? Hundreds of dollars? These look as awful lot like the ones I got at the local dollar store. I’d swear they’re the same…
4:27 How do they carve the shako?
most likely it is "turned" or carved on a wood lathe and the bill of the shako is added later.
shako from napoleonic times
@@penginator89 I mean in regards to the manufacturing.
What kind of nuts do the life-sized versions crack? 🤔
Coconuts?
Not sure but life size or 40 foot tall, they aren't using them to crack a black walnut. Those things are insanely hard to crack. Squirrels will pass them up unless they are desperate.
The idiot nuts. Stupid enough to buy them.
Nice🎁🎄
they didnt really show the mechanical parts responsible for cracking nuts.
They look like they’re all wearing hotpants!
i like that
If this was a Chinese factory, lots of the employees would wind up on the r/DeadorVegetable subreddit.
Look around but did not see the "Marry Shaw" and her dolls models...
1:05 and its color is pale (light) enough to mimic skin😑😑😑😑
I have 2045 nutcrackers
Tanya now is watching to find how being x is made and his weakness
i knew someone would comment a reference.
1928 is considered a young company in Germany. In the US its considered ancient! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hello immortal
we not gunna talk abt 4:16 XD?
With all the automated lathe work, how does that justify charging over a hundred dollars? Where's the "human" in this craft?
and here in india we use the door frame for this :P
Nowerdays, most of them used only for decoration
@@kiramariechen some of them look really adorable
The two main ingredients are *nut* and *cracker*
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love Nutcrackers💂
OH YAY MORE CRISMIS
😍
No one:
How It's Made: Nutcrackers
Nutcrackers are super creepy and I never want to see a life size version in person 🥺
i didnt know octangular was a word lmao
makes sense. i guess i’m just a little dumb lol
lets be honest, 1928 is not that long ago.
i wonder how they disguise the lever on lady nutcrackers
They put it on the back.
Berken hout😊
Wait What? Nutcrackers?
literally did not know that thing was called a nutcracker because it actually is a fancy ass nutcracker. i thought it was some folk thing some kinda character from a story or something im 24 and im mindfuckinblown
Where have you been?
@@louisasmiles Hungary
@@lestupidunicorn Then eat a Snickers Bar.
These nutcracker things are so creepy
A human size nutcracker can crack a coconut 🥥.
CRACSHOT😂💂🏼♀️
Fortnite? Crackshot
They need googly eyes. All of 'em.
I found some amazing plans for Woodglut. Just check them out.
Iet wa krijt nie heeft
Do they use real fur? can't find a yes or no anywhere
It says they use rabbit fur
@@louisasmiles Yeah, but I have a 'rabbit fur' hat, it's not real fur tho
@@Wanton110 well your hat doesn’t use real fur these nutcrackers do
*Pale enough to mimic skin*
Anyone understand what I am implying here
I heard it. It is in Germany, reproducing old style nutcrackers though. Still.
GOOD.
knussknocker?
Nussknacker*
@@HarleyQuinn-vv7qk Danke Schon...
@@everettamador9870 Bitte 😊
so this is how Being X is created.
Wait nutcrackers are actually for cracking nuts oh well i would always make them talk and eat my finger
A part of your family's Christmas tradition, were they, Yael?
PrenticeBoy1688 nope
@@yaelcohen6097 Shocking.
PrenticeBoy1688 im actually jewish so i never have nutcrackers and my mom always buys cracked walnuts
They certainly are beautiful but aren't they using faux fur by now? 🐰
Nope, there's a bunny slaughterhouse next door.
@@Zuconja 😢😞
they use the fur from rabbits that are being eaten, its better to use all of the animal than to just use the meat or fur and throw the rest away. theres a industry for everything. fur, bones, meat, and organs. some just dont want to find them.
Cheap Chinese copies use bat fur for some strange reason.
@@PrenticeBoy1688 someone posted a horrible video on Facebook of an Asian person actually ripping the head off of a dead rat with his teeth and chewing on the head. I put my hand up to block it and then I scrolled away. Just sickening.
Something that costs 100s of dollars better do more than just crack your nuts! Say polish, wash and warm them as well... giggity. 🥜🥜 :P
