Good evening all,
I have been looking to see if how I can use every part of the Black Walnut, got stupid amounts of the darn things, and can always get more for free. I have my initial process to hull, wash, and crack them. The parts I have not gotten a handle on what to do with is the shells. I would like to figure out the best type of mill to use to get the shells down to a usable size would be? I was thinking a ball mill/ rod mill/ hammer or a grinder of some sort?
Then how to go about getting the mill built and powered.
Thanks for your thoughts.
