St Andrews Cross Building Workshop
We are excited this year to host the St. Andrews cross building workshop. In a few hours you will work hands on with
several tools to build a fully functional and beautiful St. Andrews cross that you can take home and add to your toy collection.
We are offering two basic designs, both take down into parts that are easy to store in a closet or under a bed and easy to assemble in a few min. If you can fit a set of snow skiis in your car, you'll be able to fit the cross.
If you would like to build a cross with us on Saturday talk to slave joy to reserve your spot and make sure that we have enough materials ready.
Both crosses are offered at the cost of materials, our intention is to get you a functional cross at the lowest possible price. We'll have everything that you need here but if you would like to customize your cross feel free to visit your local Home Depot, Lowes, Rockler, or other hardware store for tie down points, chain, finish etc.

Pick your cross
Both crosses are functional and will look great in your dungeon but to keep the price down and to be able to build one in a few hours they will be made from construction grade lumber, not hardwood.
Both crosses are approximatly the same size and function the same way.
Option 1 ($50)
This cross is slightly harder to assemble and will take a little longer to build but is much smaller to store. it breaks down into 4 leg segments each 2" thich x 6" wide x ~4' long and one support leg that is 2"x4"x6'.
Fully Assembled
Disassembled
Option 2 ($30)
This cross is sturdy and easy to assemble, it breaks down into three major peices, each 2" thich x 6" wide x ~8' long. It's easier to put together and build, but takes up more room to store and each piece is heavier to carry.
Fully Assembled
Finishing Options
After sanding you can finish and customize your cross in a variety of ways, we'll have a few options available but feel free to bring your own.
Standard price does not include hard points.
Good options include
Drilled holes (free)
No hardpoints (free)
Basic hardpoints ($6)
Bring your own (lots of great options)
Burned finish, we burn it with a small torch. (Safe-ish)
