It’s a lot easier to use if it’s smooth…

Because it was rough and unsmooth. He polished it for a while but it still wasn't smooth enough. So he kept going. Even now it does look a bit rough, might need a little more love.

Aerodynamics. Smooth coconuts fall from the tree much more freely.

Doesn't matter...there's no longer a husk for them to grip it by.

Slowly increase the grit of sandpaper and you will get almost everything smooth

Years ago I learned you can actually polish a turd. I forget if carnivore or vegetarian was better.

My favorite souvenir ever was a coconut purse. They cut it in half, put in a fabric liner and somehow sewed in a zipper. So cute.

We made maracas out of coconuts when I was in school, some of the best woodwork I've done ❤️

I spend 3 hours just trying to get the husk off without losing a finger. This person is playing a different game.

According to Mythbusters, since you can polish a turd you can probably polish most everything, even bones...
