Guillotine Model

[rockhopper]

Hi

Not sure if this is best place for this, mods please move if there is somewhere more suitable.
Does anyone know of a paper/card model of a French Revolution Guillotine?
Its for a school project for my daughter, and she would love to win the class prize!
Any help much appreciated.

Thanks
RH

There is a working guillotine, design Edmund V. Gillon. I have it in stock (see my site, page Miscellaneous > automata). If you are in the US it might be less expensive to check 2nd hand booksellers online - postage across the Atlantic is fairly horrible.

You might want to detail it up, but there's always Tektonten's

RH - Tektonten's would be fine - especially if your daughter has a Barbie still somewhere.!

I want to see how you could get Barbie's hair into one of those towering bee hives, but I imagine after a few days in prison, it would probably be down and straggly and quite nasty.

Hair was no problem: it was cut off just before the victims went under the blade.

That would have been a close shave....

Just a little off the top?
