A little sewing project

[bambikiller]

Noooo - not the only one - have you not read Geralds Game by Stephen King???

No, but an old girlfriend of mine who I'd tie down and or cuff quite offten did and she told me about it.

I don't know sounds like there's alot of you out there who must be dating old sick people and inept poeple. The only time I've had a candle going is with wax play and I put it out after wards. I also passed my last stess test with flying colors.

But if you all want to be extra safe while you play, thats fine with me. I just play a little different.

How nice for you.

It's nice to know I'm old, inept and sick seeing as how I'm pregnant with high blood sugar. Obviously I'm not worth playing with since I could have an emergency during play.

Truth be told, most restraints can be escaped from with a little time and ingenuity. Obviously, in the event of an emergency, you might not HAVE time, but there are few things that one can't escape from, even if the most brutal dungeon master EVAR puts you into them.

ETA: I like the cuffs. I wish I could sew. Or do anything crafty.

I didn't say you were old or inept.
Did you read what I wrote or not, unless of course you are the one tying your partner up. Then yeah maybe you should take precutions.

I absolutely did read what you wrote. Perhaps you should write with a little bit of sensitivity instead of just throwing words that can be seen as snobbish and rude out next time, eh?

Wow sounds like someones a little cranky today.

I don't think I was being too harsh. Hell half the posts were from subs who are afraid of their partner dieing on them and one almost burnt the house down.

Obvously there are some poeple out there who should be having sex at all if it's going to kill them.

I was simply stating that
1) I'm a healthy person
2) (My first point) It seesms to defeat the whole point of bondage play by designing cuffs that you can free your self from.

You know, you're just being an utter asshole about this. People shouldn't be having sex because they have health problems? K is epileptic, does that make her not worth playing with either? Jesus Mary and Joseph some people can be idiots.

Okay so I obviously wasn't the only person who thought you were being harsh. You might not have meant to come across as superior and snobbish but you did anyway.

 

[bambikiller]

Two things, did I not say if you wanted to play extra safe that was fine with me.

How is saying I'm healthy and 99.9 percent sure I won't burn down my house being snobbish.

And No I don't think I'm an asshole definatly a dick but not an asshole.
I have to be in the business I'm in, maybe it carrys over.

Love to chat more but I got to go.
If I offended anybody well then, maybe your right I am asshole but come on the guy almost burnt his house down.
If thats not inept then what is.

I can't explain it to you any better than I already have. If you don't get it that's your problem, not mine. If you want to use the excuse that you have the right to act like an asshole, that's all well and good, but Karma's a bitch. Food for thought.

That's how you're being snobbish you idiot. Leave the thread, stop posting and quit while only a few of us think you're a berk.

 

[zoe8]

ummm shit happens? Sheesh.

If someone doesn't want to be locked down and instead just tied down I think that should only matter to the person doing the locking/tying.

 

[CutieMouse]

It seems as though the majority here wants to be able to free themselves.
Whats the point of the restraints then.
I'd want a way of locking them, I guess that's why I have handcuffs.

Because there's such a thing as an emergency.

House catches fire while you're Dom's out getting ice cream, do YOU want to burn alive because you'd prefer to be totally helpless? You have a heart attack and are lying there dying? Have an allergic reaction and suffocate? Pass out from low blood sugar and slip into a coma?!

No freakin thanks. I'd prefer restraints I could escape -If Necessary- and I think the rest of us would too.

Actually my first thought was I'd probably not do the bondage thing with someone who left me locked up, alone, candles lit/ignoring particular health issues relevant to our relationship, while popping out for an ice cream...

Although I'm not a fan of metal handcuffs, personally - they tend to do rather nasty things to one's wrists, and I have quite enough wrist issues already. RJ invented a good wrist tie a few years ago that was secure, but easy to get out of in case of emergency; it's also why I prefer carabiners or gate hooks. (Obviously, the whole bad wrist thing influences me views here.)

Interesting question though - while I do understand the perspective of "what's the point if escape is possible?", the flip side is "pyl could probably bail and get out of this any time he/she wanted to, but chooses not to..." Fun little twist, that.

And to the OP - good job on the cuffs!

 

[Kitty_Schrödinger]

Thanks for the complements. It feels plenty solid already. All the force is essentially on a single continuous strap, with the only weak point being the buckle. I also soldered the D-rings before sewing them on to provide a bit of extra strength.

bambikiller, what do you mean by another D-ring to lock them? I can't easily fit another D-ring and still have it so versatile. It needs to be able to overlap itself.

Also, here's a velvet choker I made. I used a CNC embroidery sewing machine to stitch a silver estragen molecule.

hey great work! I like cuffs too

Indeed, they're lovely.

I apologise for continuing off topic. However, this whole escape thing is an interesting discussion in and of itself.

Lately, I get off more on binding someone with ideas, with voice, with Will. Rope and stuff is beautiful, of course, and decorative. But I like the idea of saying to someone, "you know you can get out of this any time you want. I'm simply telling you not to."

There's a mindfuck/ control aspect of that that really appeals to me.

Unknown health issues and bad house wiring could be a problem as well. A robber could come in and be ransacking your house. What my point is, shit happens every day. Unexpected stuff. I would never feel comfortable being completely helpless and alone in a situation where I need to be safe against as many possible problems that could occur.

And I doubt I would feel "comfortable" allowing someone to bind me with every intent of leaving me completely helpless and alone.

People do grow older. And illness happens. BDSM is not something you outgrow.

Only half the post were from subs. Which also means half were from Doms. Which also means that lots of people consider the possibility of something going wrong.

Agreed. See my second post.

Indeed, they're lovely.

I apologise for continuing off topic. However, this whole escape thing is an interesting discussion in and of itself.

Yep. See above,


And to the OP, I bet you never thought a sewing project would lead into a deep discussion of the pros or cons of inescapable bondage.

 

[satindesire]

And I doubt I would feel "comfortable" allowing someone to bind me with every intent of leaving me completely helpless and alone.

So would I! That's exactly my point. I don't understand what the problem is here?!

Even if someone just leaves the room to take a piss, anything could happen. Christ, I'm leaving before I insult yet another person.

 

[bustyblondebombshell]

Those look good I made something similar myself but using neoprene - thats soft but strong, so didn't need the lining.

I think I would prefer a metal cinch buckle that you can loop back over, and heavier D rings, for when she suddenly realizes that maybe things are going a bit too far.

That statement so trips me

I would be skittish about being securely bound and unattended but something like that requires time and trust that Mister and I have yet to achieve. Candles are an obvious, preventable hazard but the odds of freak house fires are small enough that I would probably not freak if left for 10mins or so.

That's assuming he chose to tell me how long he would be absent for.

People are people and kinksters are as diverse a demographic as any other 'sexual minority' or whatever. People are going to have health issues that require a little creativity and common sense and mental/emotional issues can be just as prescient. If bambikiller is determined only to play with people who have a completely clean bill of health then that's just fine and dandy with me. Nature is a great leveller however. Heart disease is one of the Uk & USA's biggest killers and often there are no signs at all, just a massive, fatal heart attack.

But you run along & have fun now Bambi.

 

[bambikiller]

I'm back.

House fires, Heart attacks, house invations and unknown health issues can ruin your play time so true.
But you probably 10 times more likly to die in a car accedent then while having sex.
You may not agree but I think bondage should involve actual bondage, that was and is my entire point.
I never said I liked to tie someone up and leave them. I don't think anyone should allow aother person to tie, bind or cuff them if they don't completely trust the other person.
So bambi will play and if I die while having sex, Moms going to have some explaining to do to the kid.
