Interesting ! Thank you for that explanation. I did break the nut in the correct place. I mistakenly placed it incorrectly for the picture.

Then did you try breaking it against the seem, or did you push both together?

I'm not sure I understand the question haha ! I placed the nut where I was supposed to.

I'm asking about the orientation of the nut. Whether the line was touching the 2 sides, or if it was parallel to the 2 handles. If it was parallel then it's understandable that it broke because you didn't target it's weak point.
