In addition to the pull-handle, it has a horizontal D-ring on the back for extra control & 3 on the front/sides to clip to whatever her heart desires. the leather is ~7oz on ~15oz, heavy as hell & fun to pull from either perspective
pre-ordered the shame mask, i'm SO excited!!!!

04.04.2025 22:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I could wax poetic about belly leather. I could talk abt intimacy, vulnerability, trust. Roll over and show you all my insides. How does creating art with my hands connect to the most universal act of submission?
But the truth is much simpler: belly leather is $20
This was also an interesting experience in how leather takes oil: the entire harness + acessories is made from one piece of english tan belly leather, but some parts became much darker than others with the same amount of oil.
14.03.2025 04:12 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Working with the triangle-rings vs O-rings was a new experience, it does make the harness a bit more stiff. I initially was concerned about this, but I think the stiffness is part of why the back looks so good; it holds shape well. The backshot is hot, is what I'm saying.

I REALLY love how the back of this turned out, I love how it flows with the body and emphasizes the shoulders.
I have made a neocities page to compile my work. my html skills are rudimentary, but they get the job done:

If I'm wearing gear that is stamped so a viewer can read, it means that it's been specifically placed& oriented in a way that requires another person for it to be complete.
I like stamping words on the inside bc it isn't for you (viewer, play partner, assailant, lover), it's for me. Stone stuff.
I was also considering WHY we wear stamped gear. I love seeing stamped words, lables, degredations, & adorations as much as anyone, but when it's on the outside, who is that FOR?

Bulldog-style chest harness w H-shape on front&back, using the heaviest weight leather I could find at my budget (belly leather, ~5-7mm thick), w all-steel hardware. Made for a friend, w the specific request of being very heavy.

The underside tabs of the front of the collar are stamped with GOOD/DOG, so it reads correctly by the wearer when it js worn

The collar's internal tabs (where the O rings are) are stamped w GOOD/DOG, oriented so it only reads correctly to the wearer.
+ detail shot of the slapper showing the 2 layer slapping part. There are 178 tiny studs on this set; my hands hated it but my heart loves the result.

The slapper studs hurt like hell, and they also make it very noisy :) Collar kerchief flag is great for pulling as well. Details in next post β¬οΈ
text on the INSIDE is important to me... the things you do to yourself, the things you keep for yourself, the things you wear for yourself. it's not about decoration or declaration. it's not about anything anyone else can see. it's about you and yourself in an ultimate form of intimacy.

The short spikes produce a nice low burn, versus sharp pinch. Decreased pain as price to allow longer term wear w/o risk of bleeding.
