I'm away from my solidworks right now, but I only had the idea because of a TV show I watched a few episodes of where a 5-person guillotine was used. It had a long arm with a blade that would swing in an arc, 90 degrees or so in total. They would set the machine by cranking the arm up into position. It wasn't ever shown if it was weights or springs, but the show was set in a sort of Victorian Era fantasy world. "Carnival Row" I think was the name of the show. There were faries and satyr and some humans that desperately needed to be guillotined in the town square.
Well now you have to build it. It could come in use some day.
