You can buy a handgun and a couple boxes of ammo.
You can buy a 3D printer and download a gun.
Or almost an AK.
Go cheaper on the wood by using logs and tree branches for the bench. That will allow for stronger and harder metal to be purchased. Sheet metal is pretty flimsy if you don’t put a bend or bead in it.
Not that I’ve sat outside and contemplated what I could do with my surroundings or anything like that...
Just a rope tied in a loop, branch, and a stool to stand that can be knocked out of the way with someone on it.
Depending on cost of rope, you may not have enough for $600. A guillotine is much cheaper in the long run and the only maintenance required is grease and sharpening. There's lots of people with a drill or impact hammer and if they have one of those, they probably have a saw with a blade.
There's lots of drawbacks with the rope solution, the biggest being it is the more expensive option in the long run.
How often should one sharpen the blade? Every use or when you get to 5-10 drops for decapitation?
An 80# sack of concrete mixed and set into a 5 gallon bucket dropped from same height onto the chest would suffice, then there’s less clean-up. Still provides dynamic action, too.
To be honest, you'd be amazed what you can buy if you're willing to put in a bit of creativity and elbow grease!
Now, you've gave me the best idea. Buy tons of ramen and sell them back to college students at a high markup price.
You have to spend more than $65 on a good cordless impact driver. More like ~180.
All of that shit comes from China, just buy the cheap one, maybe it will pay for itself before it breaks.
My Milwakee electric impact wrench was $330, it's still going strong, more than paid for itself in a month.
You can reuse rope after a couple hours...and no need to be good at fabrication.
Upgrade to steel cable, it increases production. The rope should only be used for the "higher value" clients.
I like your thinking!
I'll buy the popcorn and butter, let me know when the show begins.
How many guillotines would we need?
That number rises by the day
