That, and the plastic ones, they have the plastic teeth, those very easily break just by putting a dense nug in it.

Try and find a wooden one w/metal teeth. I use one of those and it works great.

Metal is the best though, casing and all because, over time resin builds up, and a metal one doesn't get sticky or hard to turn.
