[Stoves] Lanny's Biscuit cutter...?

[lannych]

I doubt that a bulb planter will be strong enough,
My cutter has a 16ga ss cutting cylinder and weighs 30 lb or 13.5 kilo. 
There is quiet a bit of force in the chop when the cutter is raised 2ft/65cm 
and brought down with all my might.
Could someone estimate the force? I probably push down with about 25 to 
30lb/13.5K of weight plus the 2 ft of drop.

I may have too much weight, probably 20lb/9K would do, especially if the 
paper is soaked for 3 or 4 days.

Dear Friends

I was looking through the tools in a well stocked gerden center on Sunday 
and found a device that looks a great deal like Lanny's round 
biscuit-cutting briquette maker.  In case you don't have a workshop, you 
could try it out.

It is a bulb planter and could be sharpened on the bottom edge to made a 
simple briquetting tool.

The handle is spring loaded to assist ejection and I think it cost $6 or so. 
Note the chrome!

Regards
Crispin
