Splendid, Baracus. I hope it brings you much pleasure and excitement. Maybe you will even share it with some of the UK crew here? The cornu looks quite solid and very adjustable, just what you need :D

May I be pedantic about your last point? What you show us in these pictures is the cross. It is not a crucifix. To be a crucifix in all its glory it lacks just one thing, Baracus.
You!
A crucifix is a cross with a figure on it :)
Aha,thank you for the correction.
@phlebas
My mistake,obviously a crucifiable offence ?? Lol

Crime : Sedition and Unlawful Desertion

Getting crucified for 'sedition and unlawful desertion'? Seems a fair sentence to me.

But : 'Unlawful Desertion'!? Is there any kind of 'lawful desertion', then?:confused:

"Does not matter, Your Honor! Desertion is desertion! Lawful or not! Crucify him!"
"All right, Mr. Prosecutor! I proclaim we crucify Baracus for desertion, and we give him an extended cornu to suffer on, since his desertion was unlawful!"
 
Okay I've added a 1.5 cm extension to the base of the Sedile/Cornu....

So,stick that up your bum,Baracus !! Lol.
 
All ready for the weekend.....
Black background now up.....
All I need is a volunteer to crucify.... ;)
(sadly,due to a chronic shortage of willing, nubile young Virgins,it looks like I'll be offered to the Crux...instead. :( Oh well ,a slave's gotta do what's required of him.)

O-kay.....
After a shitty start,(for various reasons) :(
l finally managed to modify my Crux...
I decided that the current footrest was too low-down,for photographic purposes, so came up with the idea of a Japanese-Style Cross,combined with a Footrest. (using the original Footrest as a support,to add to the height.)
Once sorted I took more boring (Lol) pics,of yours truly,in various crucifixion poses.
Just got to edit them.....
BE WARNED.......I'm NAKED,in quite a few of them....!! ;) ;)
 
Here's a few pics of the Cross and various components....
pic 1 : With original Footrest
pics 2 & 3 : With extended "Japanese" Footrest
pics 4 & 5 : The various components laid out,(plus tools)
pic 6 : This reminds me of something.... ;)
