Step 1
Before you begin, download our cutlist (www.dremel.com/webdav/dremel/document_library/dremel-en-us-misc-images/NUTCRACKER%20CUT%20LIST.pdf). Once your pieces are cut and sanded, use wood glue to join the head to the hat as shown here. Tip: Smooth all edges before assembly. Glue all joints except for the jointed arms & mouth/lever, which must move for the cracker to function.
Step 2
Assemble the arms as shown using wood glue.
