No problem. I kinda just grabbed stuff as I worked, but I'll do my best. Plus I’m at work, so I have to go off of memory. lol

Things you'll need-

1/2" dowel rod (you can go a bit thicker, but this is what I used-

For the wood planks (slats), I just cut up some balsa wood I had laying around, but you can get something like this and cut it up-

And for the bracing I found a thicker 3' length of balsa at the store, but I cant find it online. but it's basically whats in this-

For the chain I found a necklace at Walmart similar to this-

For weathering I just mixed paints, but you can use something like this-

Xacto (or something to cut the wood with), a wood stain (I had some at the house, but you can get a small can at Lowes for a few bucks), Balsa glue (or wood glue..I just used CA glue) paint (I used Tamiya acrylics).

1. Figure out what size you want to make the dock. 8”x8” is about perfect, but I made my 5”x7” to save shelf room.
2. Cut the bracing the depth you want the dock (mine was 7”). I used a band saw, to make cuts easier.
3. Cut enough planks to run the length of your bracing, allowing for some spacing between them. Mine were cut ½” x 5”. These don’t have to be perfect. Symmetry takes away from a “real” look.
4. Take a dowel rod and score/cut it on both ends of 1 plank.
5. Cut the dowel rod pieces. I “think” my front 2 were about 5” long, and the back 2 were just over an inch.
6. Now that everything is cut, stain all the pieces. Again, you’re not looking to be uniform here. Go light and heavy on different pieces.
7. After the stain dries, it’s time to assemble. Using your glue of choice, set the 2 braces even and parallel to each other (the plank you cut the semi-circle into goes on 2nd from the front), and start gluing down the planks (a little glue goes a long way). Be sure to keep some spacing between them, and a slightly crooked one every now and then is all the better. I started with about 1/8” overhang on the first plank, and ended that way as well.
8. Flip it over, and glue the 2 short dowel rods to the inside of the bracing, up against the planks.
9. For the front 2, you’re going to want to level out the dock to the right height that was set by the rear 2, and glue them to the outside of the bracing. Again, it’s okay if they are slightly crooked.
10. Now comes the detailing. I took a pencil and made a slight indention with a twisting motion in the planks over top of the bracing to mimic nails.
11. Next I took apart the ends of the necklace off, and separated a link in the middle to have 2 pieces (I did it uneven, so one was longer than the other). I then painted it a gunmetal silver to get it to look like a galvanized chain.
12. I then wrapped the chains around the bottom of the dowel rods, up and around the top of the deck, attaching them with glue.
13. For final detailing I mixed some paint together till I got a flat dark mud tone. I went heavy with the pain around the base of all 4 dowels, fading as I went up. Sloppy is good. I then added some mud tones here and there over the dock and notched the front dowel to hold an axe or machete.

And bam! You’re done!

Thanks a lot for the tutorial. I went by Hobby Lobby at lunch and spent the rest of the day putting it together.

Used a spare Bane hand I had laying around to replace the fists Sideshow didn't see fit to give us.
 
Just received the metal/wood axes from Dave and Tinela. Also recently got my modded SS Jason sculpt and hock back from Galactiboy. Now ready to share the upgraded SS Jason. Im totally happy with him and I think he fares very well while displayed with custom Jason's.

They all look great Tattony especially Part-3.Could I see some close ups of his face,and did you bulk him up at all?
 
Thank You Sir. I DID NOT bulk up the body at all. You can really work with this figure and Id have to say its all in the pose you choose. In all honesty, Im totally pleased (in love) with this figure. I think SS did a fantastic job and like anything else, it has its defaults. Totally fixable though and not too expensive considering this hobby we all love. Joseph aka Galactiboy did a great job upgrading for me. It was not expensive by any means and even though I never intend to display without the hock, I can because of Joseph:duff
For me, Bottom line = This figure, with minimal work is a GREAT representation of Booker and F13 pt3. Personally, I AGREE with all who want the most bang for their buck but I never intended to buy and display and be done. The party should never be over.
OK, off the soap box, here are closeups of the head as you requested.

Glad I could help out man... and I agree with your appraisal, the Sideshow figure (with a little work) can really be a great figure.
 
Galactiboy really great work on those Jason heads:clap I was okay with the stock look....but if I had a second head I'd go galactiboy style for sure
