A client recently inquired to furnish his haunted dollhouse with this guillotine. It is 8" in height and is distressed measurably. He requested decades of neglect after much use. I needed to learn to rust steel under controlled circumstances. It worked.

The wood is very worn in all the right places, the table is fully hinged, and a copy can be attained through dreadwilliam.com.

I believe he is having a sale right now.

Want a machine that commands, no demands attention? Try a 24" model like this. It makes mighty noise and hits with such force that structural changes needed to be made to rechannel the majority of the energy. The blade can cause harm even in the unsharpened state.

No plans yet to offer this model for sale as the price would be in the $400-$500USD range. My shipper will hate it as well.. Sure is cool to play with though.

I recently offered my least expensive model for sale and contracted a client very soon after. It is a fine miniature if I do say so myself. The table slides but is not permanently mounted to the frame. The wooden blade and mouton are made from maple to aid in momentum during freefall. Painted and distressed blade looks good but unfortunately...will not rust. I like rust.
