Winter is coming, and so is season four of the much-anticipated HBO hit, 'Game of Thrones.' A diehard fan can't welcome its return in the usual fashion, and that's where the Make Your Own Iron Throne comes into play. It offers the perfect perch from which to watch all the medieval drama that will unfold in early 2014.
Created by Instructables user flaming_pele!, a web developer by day and gamer by night, the Make Your Own Iron Throne is a fun do-it-yourself project that will certify anyone's geek level. It is essentially made out of a plastic Adirondack chair, wooden yardsticks and grey spray paint. He also designed a base to properly give it a position of power.
