... I believe these word-lock-puzzle-thingies are called post the world-fall, i.e. Dan Brown's rise to power. Anyhow, I built this with the intention of springing it on my friends the next time we play CoC, as part of the story, of course. No, I won't tell you the password, quit asking. I don't think these friends in question ever check out what I post here, so I'm not worried. 

There are a plethora of well constructed, in-depth how-tos out there on the web. I checked most of them out to get my head around the construction, then made this design on the basis of not having access to a lathe. Ordinary drill for the most part.

A piece of copper tube for the center, and quick-grown fir for the rest. Aiming at zero budget. Old drawer knobs at the ends. 
If anyone's interested, I'll share how it's made.
