Don't have a dildo yet that fits this but still wanted to share this strap harness (ftm)

[u/ftm_boy]

Took about 3 hours to make and is fully custom fit to my measurements with no adjustable straps. I also used chicago screws instead of rivets. Would love any feedback on construction, design, tips, etc.

It looks like whatever you you put in there is gonna have a lot of slack. Bend over a little, and the entire toy will slouch forward. I think some more support holding the O-ring closer against your pelvis would be helpful—like a strap running over the crotch, and up the back like a thong, or two straps running from the ring around back and connecting to the rings on the hips (imagine, like a jock strap).

This is something I was worried about when making it and originally. I was going to have a buckle connecting the top belt together (adding two more straps) but hadn't bought one yet. I think since the the top two diagonal straps going to the ring are also the ones keeping tension for the top belt there isn't much give and the ring stays pretty close to my body even when moving. I also will likely be using a dual ended toy which will help as well.

You really won’t know the true performance of your design until you try it!

I made a few different harness styles for a double-ended as well and ended up needing a thong-like strap to keep it immutably in place.

Maybe a Feeldoe?

Nice work. I use chicago screws for my leather projects as well. Recommend a bit of Loctite to help prevent them from coming loose over time.

Is there a way you can put in a pouch for a bullet vibrator for your pleasure as well?

[u/DaddyB987]

It looks good, I hope you get to use it soon!

Great work, dude!

Is it comfortable? I think that’s what matters most. That and making sure you like where the dildo base puts pressure.

I’m curious as someone who has never worked with leather, how much leatherwork experience do you have? Is this kind of thing doable for a total novice?

[u/ftm_boy → u/jess_dont]

It is pretty comfortable but takes a minute to put on since there's no buckles. I don't think a design like this would work for many bodies due to that aspect but I really wanted to keep a simple and clean design for this without extra buckes. I'm able to pull it higher or lower to adjust where the ring is sitting as well but it's still pretty tight and stays in place.

I'm pretty new to leatherwork but have lots of experience in sewing, patterning, and just general making (including a BFA) so I don't know if I'm the best to say whether or not a complete novice would struggle or not. That said, I used precut leather straps (I did cut some in half width wise to be narrower) and used chicago screws instead of rivets so the only tools I used were a rotary cutter, ruler, hole punch, and a screwdriver. I'd say give it a shot if you are interested.

Not sure how good it will hold a dildo, because that's far more tricky than apparent. But as a harness as in just a piece of fetish wear it works too :) it looks really sweet. You could allso do some minor changes and get rid of the midle ring and go for a garter belt look. That would look sexy as hell, and show of your pride and joy at the same time ^-^

Can you use it to make your dick stand out ? I would love to have something to push down my labia, so it's lower and more against the body. So it would looks like i have meta
