Step 5Building and mounting the feet
For this step get four of the 2.5 ft long cut sections, and four of the small 3 in. squares.
Lay one of the boards flat, then place one of the smaller blocks on top of it on each end. Top with another long piece.
Now drill and screw the top piece to the inner blocks, then flip it over and repeat the process. Do the same for the other foot.
Now slide each foot onto its side beam. The feet should be approximately centered on the beam. The bottom of the posts should be flush with the bottom of the feet.
Stand the guillotine up on it's feet. (An assistant may help if the feet aren't tight enough.) Once you are sure the guillotine is straight and balanced, secure the feet to the frame with screws through both sides of the feet.
