DIY Walnut and Paper Drum Machine is Bizarre, But Free

“Walnut and Paper Drum Machine.” It sounds like the subject header from some shitty spam e-mail. But thankfully, this DIY project is both faux-meat product-free and very real.

So, here’s what you have to do. Steal a bunch of walnuts from your squirrely forest friends, grab a sheet a paper and a webcam, and head over to download the free drum machine software. Technically, you don’t have to use walnuts, but without them, this wouldn’t be much of a walnut drum machine, now would it?

It’s Peanut Butter Time, No Jelly

If you’re wondering how George Washington Carver discovered three hundred uses for peanuts, you’re wasting your time. Everyone knows there is only one use for peanuts and that’s the creation of delicious peanut butter. By the end of the month, this peanut butter machine will be available for you to crush up your favorite shell nuts into creamy rich nut butter.  Mmm – nut butter. Who knows how many double-ended jars you could fill with an endless supply of homemade nut butter and with your MacGyver-skills, you could come up with some interesting blends of nuts.

You could open your own shop that sells custom nut butter and if the name hasn’t already been taken, you could call your store, “Totally Nuts For Nut Butter”.  You might be thinking, is $50 dollars a decent price for a peanut butter machine? Are you fucking kidding me? I’d put my house on a second mortgage to get a hold of one of these!
