Unfortunately, my first thought in any suicide story is now "at least they didn't take anyone with them"
Ugh.

At least two men in Britain have also killed themselves with self-made guillotines.

He had to be an engineer.
Who else would have left the the receipts for the device nearby for someone to find?

It's good to see people taking the time to do things right. Pride in one's work is a virtue that's too often ignored these days.

Just John, leave it to Richard O'Brien to come up with an idea like that! I've never seen that before!
