I remember Dad used a thing like old is talking about. Jacked up one side of the car on the back so the wheel would spin and used some sort of wooden box to hull them. You can buy a fancy tool to crack them or just use a hammer if you're careful. For your question of how long to dry, you can tell on the first one you crack open if they're not ready.

Used to be around here, every wide spot in the road had a huller and would buy your walnuts but now I know of two within reasonable driving distance. If there is somebody close to you buying nuts, I bet they would hull yours for almost nothing or maybe take 10% off the top to do it for you. Then find a spot safe from squirrels and let them dry for a couple of weeks and crack a few to see how they're drying.
