Freeze treatment is not uncommon for warts and skin tags. Try dipping a
warm weiner into liquid nitrogen, then drop it. It will shatter like
glass. Should work well for breaking nuts, studs, etc. But you gotta be
very careful. The stuff can boil and spatter at well below minus 150F
and that could spoil your day if it gets on you.
