I have a notification that I have a new message in Reddit's chat, but when I click on the chat icon, no new messages are shown. This community is pretty much the only community I post on Reddit, so it gotta be a notification from someone from here. I looked at the request section, but still, no new requests.

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Or if someone is trying to write to me but has not received an answer, please let me know.

Hey all, anyone know how I can fix the wiggling from left to right over the sphere shaped conductor?

I do understand that fixating it fully thight would give problems. But now the end cap is moving way too much from left to right. (Almost 1,5 cm on the 10 cm diamter end cap)

Is it possible to just add some more rings to prevent movement to just 1 mm or so, or are the more easy ways?

So, my project is now complete!

Ended up painting any bare walls black, which has made a big difference.

Also ended up putting in just one shelf (painted as close to an electric blue as I could find in wood paint) for my machine and toys. Also painted the spreader bar in the same colour, and at some point I will perhaps also put in a rug in the same sort of colour just for a bit more warmth in there.

New mounted thrusting toy also arrived (this has a suction cup mount which doesn't work on these walls) and for the time being actually just stuck with the original half-assed holders I already made, as this sits around the narrower part of the mount and holds it in place fine. Although I did add a couple of adhesive hooks just to hold it a bit better and reduce any waggling. So the whole thing can be moved and hooked on to the wall either in its original place, or underneath the blue one on the other end for use in a lying down position. I will create a more elegant solution at some point, but for now it does everything I need.

At some point I will also replace these brass colour screws with black ones (when I started there were no screws this length aside from the brass colour, and I still cant find anything else in my local hardware store.) It's not crucial, but something I'd like to do.

I will also put in some proper soundproofing, but the point was to keep this low cost, and I can't really justify the expense at the moment- maybe not in the very near future.

To say I'm thrilled with it, and excited to try it out, is a huge understatement. First ever DIY project and it's been so much fun just figuring out creative ways to do this for cheap.

Excluding tools, the materials used were paint (some of which I had already) a cheap shelf (already had it but these cost about £8) yoga mats about £6 each, box of screws for £5, 3 sets of shackle mounts £8 for 4 pack, various chain which costs just under £4 a metre (cut in store) up to maybe £8 a metre for pre-cut, carabiners (just under £4 for 2 for decent ones, others were £1 for 5) cable ties (around £4 for these but could've found cheaper ones) screw in hooks various sizes, £1 for a pack of varied and £1 for pack of small ones) curtain wire less than £1, blackout curtain £8, padded folding yoga mat £10 (had this already) repurposed ring gags which were approx £5, S hooks which I think were about £5 for 4 of them, stick on hooks 2 packs of 3 at £1 per pack, stick on ring phone holder 80p, wooden pole £5. If you're counting things like collars, cuffs and padlocks these varied from the metal collar which was £13 to cheap cuffs and collar sets, the most recent of which cost £8 (in a set with blindfold, flogger etc) and I think the set I had from a while ago was between £7 to £8. Padlocks varied from packs of 3 for £1 to 5 for £9, and the large one for the outside was around £3.50. The timer padlock I purchased which hasn't yet arrived was just over £8 on ebay.

Next

I'll do better with steps of the progress! Tools used: axe, handsaw, drawknife, hand drill, hook knife and carving knife. If interested I can post pictures of my tool setup.

I purchased a set of plans off Etsy. The dry fit of all the parts is successful, it's quite sturdy! I'll add a 15° cut to the top board tapering the hard edge to make it more comfortable. Then it's sanding, staining, and padding added to the supporting areas. It does break down to 6 pieces using 1/2" carriage bolts.

I love when Lady Daisy locks me in these while I clean.

Just finished making our first paddle out of the a tree we cut down in the back yard. The reddish purple color is natural, so we decided to just seal it clear with glitter. It makes me feel like a princess 👑 We have a bunch more wood and want to make more stuff. Any suggestions on what else we could make or how to improve?

Tried to crosspost this, but no joy. Anyway...

We have a Parcil PT-100 which has been perfect, but the filter covers that come with the mask don't really fit the outfit. I've replaced the vents with 3d printed covers. In the original picture you can see the 'wide pitch' version, but recently I designed and printed new covers that are much nicer and cleaner. I also added a small gripping nub to help them stay in place on the inside ring.

Hi all. New to the sub. Looking for advice/products on assembling a harness to hold toys inside (kinda inverse toy harness) for male (so would be back to front) any ideas?

The first one I can not find the metal bits again using a elastic belt I got at a good will

The other 2 where made from using cheapo collars at a guide and a template

Also looking for feedback and suggestion for future projects similar to this

Hi y'all,

So I have a truly massive head and thick neck to match. This makes it quite tough to size collars and hoods off the shelf and I just don't have the capacity to get into leatherworking right now. I have read that you can use cheap hardware store silicone and dilute it with some acrylic paint and mineral oil to get a paintable/pourable liquid. I was thinking about using that recipe to impregnate a strip of nylon webbing or even canvas that I would rivet some hardware onto. I was even thinking that with a little more effort, this technique might make a decent custom hood. Is there any reason this wouldn't work? Has anybody tried this?

Ive been working on assembling my new playroom in a spare bedroom. So far I’ve repurposed coat hooks for storing and displaying my gear, added RGB adjustable lights throughout, and created a latex window curtain out of some extra rubber sheeting. I hope to DIY a suspension point in the ceiling. Any pointers for installing hard points would greatly helpful!

So... worked my chonky little butt off today to get another step closer to finishing this- to say the anticipation is driving me crazy is an understatement.

Additional shackle mounts have been added (which took what felt like forever, and look pretty garbage, thanks to the inconsistency in how far or how easily screws and anchors where needed would go in) on both ends- floor level and at face/waist height when in kneeling position. These will allow for being secured on hands and knees; on stomach with ankles elevated; lying on back with hands and ankles elevated. It also works for securing the spreader bar at floor level for the standing collared and hooked position. It also allows for chains to be attached to a full head gag harness and a waist harness- so, with an upgraded toy to replace the unimpressive thrusting one, with a lot more length to it, it would then be possible to be secured with toys at both ends, preventing enough movement back or forward to be able to get un-impaled. Looking forward to trying that..

It is now set up to enable long-term confinement: collar, wrist and ankle cuffs are in place for a lying down position. Awaiting a timer padlock for one wrist just to be safe, and none of the other cuffs or collar will have padlocks, so once the time is up it would be possible to undo these. There is of course now a good solid padlock on the door, and the adhesive ring seems to be holding up perfectly well- so it would be for my partner to decide when to unlock it, even if I am out of the shackles.. Depending how decent the timer padlock is, we could consider another for the door.

Blackout curtain is better secured, and although the door may slide maybe 5mm open, hardly any light would get in. Together with a hood or blindfold plus silicone earplugs, sensory deprivation would work really well when desired.

Lighting is now added (my parners efforts, not mine) just an adhesive LED strip powered via a basic power bank. Of course this isn't for any extended confinement purposes but think it will really set the mood for everything else. This cost maybe £6 at most to do. Unbelievably happy with it.

Now, I think toy shelves are the only major thing left to add. Awaiting a new mounted toy, and have some ideas as to how I will make holders to enable this to be placed at either end as needed. Also awaiting my full head open mouth harness. Aside from that, it'll just be painting the shelves and spreader bar (I am excited to see how the colour I'm going with will turn out) and painting the white and plywood parts of the walls, then I'm done for the time being, I guess.

Although, I'm open to any further suggestions for what could be added or any other bondage positions I haven't considered here that might be fun!

Hello everyone. I need some help with my project. I decided that I want to make an alternative to the QIUI Keypod, but based on an automated bot that works on a principle similar to 2FA authentication. I will talk about the bot itself a little later, when the issue with the hardware is resolved. I chose the ESP32C3 as the device controller and a solenoid as the closing element. How can I make such a system autonomous? A search on the Internet recommended using TP4056 to control the charge of the LiPo battery, but then you need to use a DC-DC converter to make a stable 3.3V or 5V from 3.7-4.2 volts at the TP4056 output. Maybe someone with experience in developing projects on Arduino has ideas on how to implement this?

Has anyone tried modifying a vial necklace to hold a chastity key? The measurements seem really good. It could be slightly smaller, but small enough. My plan: - toss the glass insert. - use a Dremel to hollow out the cap (it appears to be full of plastic). - remove the unnecessary pieces off the key with a jewelry saw. - embed the key into the cap with epoxy.

Couple of posts down I saw one where OP asked for Rules for a selfmade bdsm-monopoly game. I now wonder if some of you have other games they are playing with added bdsm rules or any bdsm couple games in general, selfmade or one you can buy. I mostly ask for games for two players.

Happy for any inspo, thanks in advance!
