Guillotine

I built a platform for this guillotine also.

It may come in handy for those French Foreign Legion scenarios.

Also, civilian criminals were executed by guillotine in Nazi Germany.

I kept both of them removable so I can use them in different locations. 

I used a thread for the rope.  A pretty good, and unusual kit.

French Revolution

Ykreol makes a French Revolution set.

It comes with three styrene plastic guillotines.  

I built two of them and in this case, it's mounted on a platform made of scrap styrene.

It's a very nice model and fits together pretty well.

There is some flash and I did redrill out some of the locating holes.

Still it goes together easily.
