    A shear cut would have put less force on the "tool" than their scraping cut.

    oh man. It is unbelievable what people think up and do.

    The part I really don't get, after not comprehending the stupidity of the act itself, is when they go ahead and post the video anyway, showing all the rest of the world just how stupid they are. That's like stupidity^2 ! I guess the need to be known as funny greatly overshadows the desire to be seen as responsible.

    I must be getting old.

    Folks, if we're looking for the proper technique on how to utilize a drill or lathe in the kitchen, I'd reference the video below.

    I have turned a few bushels of apples with my drill and it really works well. It can make a mess but quick and easy!
