What's the smart way to shell walnuts, I've got lots.

There has to be a better way than sitting down with nutcrackers and spending
ages to produce a tiny heap of bits.

The best nutcracker I ever had was called a Crackerjack. It had a kind
of ratchet which gradually put pressure on the nut until it cracked.
Ideal for walnuts.

I see there are some on Ebay at the moment.
