Hey Sup Forums, a couple days ago I made a thread on here about the best sealant to use on a homemade wooden buttplug. I got some answers I was happy with so I decided to give a shot at making one. Here's how it came out. I still need to go down the line of sanding grits and oil/seal it but here's for the most part how it'll look. AMA
>P.S. The whole thing was carved using only the tools you see there + a jigsaw to cut out the basic shape from the piece of wood
I'm gonna be posting the progress photos I took to bump the thread. Here's the very first stage. Found some wood and drew a shape
Cut out the shape with the jigsaw and got to carving. The first bit was probably the hardest with so much material to work with. These files went SLOW, almost as slow as the hand saw I was also using
I'd mostly shaped the head by now. This was about 2 hours of work from the previous picture
About an hour of shaving later I'd pretty much finished the head
I'm not sure it's safe to put wood up your butt
The next day, that small red vice which I found in a pile in the basement and probably 5 hours of shaving the later, sides had been grinded to a fair level
With enough lacquer you can put anything up your butt
...
It's safe as long as I smooth it out enough. Low chance of it breaking or getting stuck and most sealants (at least the ones I'd be using) are safe for humans
Why are you making a buttplug at home?
Yeah, but why?
butt, why not
>not OP but
why not
>wood
>up your ass
fucking why? If you're skilled enough at crafting shit like that, why is wood your first choice?
Why not just buy one?
1 day later, a bit of sawing and the front side of the base was done. There's no pic after this because I did the rest of it tonight and only took a photo of it finished. I ended up having to cut off the long stick on the end cause there was a small crack developing right at the base of it which I thought would totally split (and in the wrong direction) if I tried shaving down the whole thing
Still live with parents so I can't really be shipping dildos to my house, wanted to test my wood carving skills, this gives me more customization however I want it to be shaped and because why the fuck not
Metal would be my first choice but I don't have a lathe yet so it'd be hard to shave down metal by hand. My friend gave me the idea actually. Also I'm not really "skilled," this is the 2nd thing I've ever "carved," the first being a stock for a cosplay gun
why buy what you can build
This guy gets it
show me where i can buy a wooden plug
Bro. This man is able to CUSTOMIZE his own buttplug to his specific rectum. What fucking skills or crafts do you posses you Neanderthal?
this is a fucking fantastic thread. Makes me want to carve a dildo
God built the wood. Then you shaped into a buttplug. Truly Jesus is inside you.
From this guy.
OP here, you actually can buy them on etsy etsy.com
Thanks user, I was actually thinking of that but I'm not sure how much more "schhhhhht, sccchhhhhhttt, scchhhhttttt" my parents will endure from my room without getting suspicious.
amen brother
this sounds really dangerous OP, what if it breaks off in your butt
Send in a butthole beaver.
wow, never thought there was such a cult following of crafted sextoys. thanks OP
I've been wailing on this shit for 4 days in a vice with sharp files and have tried moderately hard to snap it at the base more than once. If anything breaks it will be the little stick coming off the bottom which doesn't matter as much as it seems because I've still got the rest of the base. Not gonna be wearing it longtime so it's most likely not gonna break. I had that thought in the beginning too but by the time I actually started working with the material all my concerns were gone because god fucking damn wood is a bitch to carve like that
maybe play some loud music? I personally do woodcarving outside. You can carve alone and you also won't have to deal with wood shavings
You'll want to be sure to hand sand it down to at least 2000 w/d sand paper and slightly wet it with a slightly damp paper towel. It'll reduce swelling of the wood later when you apply your clear coatings. I would apply the final coats and sand them down with 4k grit or higher. And do that a few times till you get an even coat. It'll work fine. You just need to take extra precautions now rather than learn the hard way.
okay that sounds reasonable, just be careful!
There's wood butplugs for sale. Im surprised i dont have them at my work. They might be too expensive, but, We have glass ones.
I always wear headphones so music through speakers would make them suspicious. This shit vibrated through the floors too so that might not even block it out. It's not necessarily loud but it is persistent. I could do it outside but if I'm being honest here user I'm not found outside very often. Could always wait until everybody's gone to do my carving but that'll be some slow ass work. Most likely I'll just wait until we get a lathe and then I can just turn some dildos on it in no time.
Thanks for the tips, user. I had heard someone suggest the dampening on a different website but I'll be sure to keep the rest in mind when I'm doing my sanding. Cheers
Where do you work?
>be outside
>sitting on a park bench at local community park
>just minding my own business carving a buttplug from wood
>a woman with her child passes by
>"mommy, mommy, what is that man doing?" asks the little girl
>"he's creating art, dear"
>admire little girls innocence and smile back as I imagine wearing my future toy
Yeah, no. Better keep that kinda thing behind closed walls
I live way off the road near a bigass forest with a creek down in a valley. I doubt anybody would be bothering me there
Threads like these are why I still come to Sup Forums. You're doing good work OP.
A bit of an unusual shape for a buttplug to my eyes, where did you get the idea?
I work at a adult toy shop. I've only been there a few weeks now and have not gone one day without selling one buttplug.
They sell like crazy.
lol, no, I meant in your backyard or driveway or some shit like that
>Leave thread
>Come back
>This is my reward
Did your parents not immediately start asking questions when you lugged a fucking vice off to your room?
I had seen these online a couple weeks back sexyliberation.org
Sounds like an interesting job to say the least, hope you're having fun lol
I don't even know if they know about it. There were 2 of them sitting in the basement by my (now dead) grandfathers workbench. It's a tiny thing, like 4x6" maybe. Now that I think about it I used my deceased grandfathers tools to commit a great act of sin. What a great time to be alive, amirite?
Remarkable the adult toystore would be the durable brick and mortar retail market. Sometimes you just can't wait for the Amazon delivery man to get your butt-plug.
I'd like to follow this up by saying they did start asking questions when they heard all the fucking filing going on in my room. My sister knocked on my door at like 2:00 AM and my mom yelled at me at like 4:00 PM cause she thought I was fucking with my chair since thats pretty much the only thing other than me that makes noise in my room. Right now I'm going with the excuse that I'm "shaving down the rough bits on that walking stick I have" since I de-barked a bigass stick a few months ago when I was bored
why the fuck are you filing wood inside what are you doing with the huge fucking mess it makes
If they don't see a walking stick soon theyll most certainly assume your handcrafting asshole accessories.
...
You must be fun at parties.
Just vacuum the shit up, user. I'm replacing the carpet in my room sometime soon anyway so it's not that big of a deal.
Well, I've already got the walking stick but I need to make that shit look perfect while nobody is home or there's gonna be some questions to answer. I'm mostly done with the filing now though so I'm gonna have to put the files back where they were soon before someone notices they're gone
Well nobody can say you aren't determined to stick something up your arse.
This is probably the most work I've put into getting something in my ass honestly. One time I did up an old toothbrush to have a lead on the end incase it got stuck, I made an enema "bag" out of a waterbottle and a straw and I've made a fleshlight out of a glove 3 times now I think. buildavagina.com
Alright well if anybody wants to ask something else before the thread 404s now is the time
Are you going to make anything else in future?
apparently you can make a really nice dildo out of silicone extra long hot glue sticks and a heatgun. Has anyone tried this? How did it go?
Sealant for the outside?
I might make a dildo soon if this goes well. Gonna wait for a lathe before I do anything too difficult but a (female) friend of mine in cali seems interested so I might make a couple for her too.
I've heard about this but I'd imagine that would take a dickload of hot glue sticks to actually make. sounds like it'd work though
I'm hoping I'll be able to find some sort of epoxy sealant but if I can't I'll just put some thick layers of linseed oil on it and call it a day
Apparently it only takes five extra long ones
Epoxy sealant is nasty asf. Don't use that.
Use a jimmy hat temporarily. Otherwise the wood will take on shit and smell real bad.
As a professional sex toy designer my advice would be to seal it with any spray that cures into a chemically stable compound (sulphur free), make a mold of it and cast it in silicone (Ecoflex 0050 or Dragon Skin 10A Medium cure time).
He's sticking it up his bum. Unpleasant smells come with the territory.
Huh. Might be worth a try then
The point of a sealant would be to not need a jimmy hat in the first place. If epoxy is a bad idea I could use polyurethane. Had some medfags in the last thread who said that's probably safe
Professional sex toy designer? Nigga damn, well thats something to put on your resume. A mold and casting would be a bit difficult because of the whole parents thing but I'll try if I think I can pull it off. The goal was to make it out of wood so I wouldn't need to make a mold. If I was gonna mold it I would have just done it in clay and saved myself 3 days of hand-cramping work. Since you're a pro at this what do you think of the shape? Any critiques while I'm still able to change it?
even if it breaks you just need to shit it out
Well if you ever order shoes kr tshirts online you know they rarely fit or feel right.
If you buy in store you actually can see the size and feel textures before you buy.
Your such a faggot if dubs turn straight or kys your choice
Pretty much. The top bump is 4", 2nd one is 5" and the base is 3.5" so if it does somehow snap off I'd probably be able to shit it out keeping in mind the average anus can stretch to 4" comfortably
I am straight user. I can assure you I'll have no thoughts of men while placing a piece of wood in my anus
>termites
How do you get into that? Do yyou have an engineering degree?
The shape is fine but the thin area near the base could be wider if you want to increase comfort. In general it looks like a fairly standard design with a flare at the base to prevent it from getting lost inside. The real problem is material safety. Wood can splinter and wood is very water absorbant - meaning unless you find something body safe to seal it with, this thing will be permanently butt-scented after first use. I have heard of wooden toys before but wood is generally not considered a good material for toys. You can get a silicone plug in this size for about $25 if you look around (i mean real silicone, not chinese 'silicone'). The question is if it will be cheaper for you to just buy a toy?
Yeaa it is a fun line of work and sometimes I just go for other ways to describe it on my resume. Materials and 3D sculpting engineer. General product design... stuff like that.
Timestamp in case anybody is doubtful
is that a standard 8.5x11 sheet of paper?
I do not have an engineering degree, no. It was mostly a matter of discovering that I could use my design and art skills for this, sending in some sketches go a company (bad dragon), have my design produced, and then eventually move on to starting my own company (twin tail creations). In the meantime I have learned relevant engineering, material science. My actual trade was process oriented product and interface design, so it is not that far off. After 2 years of training, tons of skills learned, and 8 product releases, I feel confident to call myself professional.
If it gets too butt-scented and I can't wash it out I might eventually end up making a mold. I'm not too concerned with splintering considering how damn tough this thing has been thus far. After wailing on the thing for probably upwards of 15 hours with a jagged file and it not splintering I'm not too concerned about it coming apart in my ass. It's meant for short time use anyway. Would you recommend a two part mold for this? I don't know much about mold making but that seems about right to me.
There are resources on youtube and on Smooth-On's website. Also check out avthepornfish on tumblr for some videos on silicone casting.
Make some thick custard or jello or something similar and penetrate it with your creation to make sure theres no abnormalties in it. Better to tear up foodstuff than your ass.
The paper is 4x6", the buttplug is about 5" tall and 2" wide at the largest bump. The base from end to end is just shy of 3"
I've been 3D modeling in Max for almost 2 years now, did photoshop for maybe a year or two before that and I did just sculpt a buttplug out of wood. How qualified would you say I am at this point?
How would that help me find abnormalities in it?
I'll check them out, thanks user
I'm not the same guy, so I dunno, but you're seriously going to want to make sure that this is smooth as fuck before you use it.
Otherwise, keep up the good work, user. Though I have to admit, wood is an odd choice for this. I would've tried clay or something first myself, but hey.
Don't worry user, I'm not putting anything in my ass if it isn't smooth as silk first. I used wood because I figured it'd be more durable and less likely to crack than clay
someone knows their Reynolds Advance Materials catalog
Surely qualified to sculpt, but you also need product design skills, moldmaking and material engineering, and a good amount of equipment. Silicone can be a bith to work with - you need to de-gas it in a vacuum chamber to get air bubbles out for instance, you need to use he right type and amount of release agent to free kt from your mold, certain compounds will mess up the catalyst xor the curing process and make it fail to cure entirely while other materials will just cure to it, and make the pieces inseperable.
There are lots of resources available and making atoy is easy - making a good toy takes experience though.
Yeah, good point. I'm not a pro or anything, I just figured clay would be easier to shape unless you had a lathe or something.
Why'd you start doing this, anyway?
Reynolds are a good place to go for materials. They have most of what you need to make quality sex toys. And their workers have enough know-how to help you with the process if you get stuck. There are plenty of alternatives though.
I blame Sup Forums. Somebody posted about some feminists giving away free buttplugs a couple weeks ago and then a few days later I saw a buttplug thread on /gif/ and after scrolling through the whole thing I started having ideas. Searched online for cheap lathes since my dad wants to buy one anyway and brought the idea up with my friend. Asked if she'd want me to send her one and she mentioned splinters (up until now I was thinking about metal) so that got me thinking of how I could make one without a lathe out of wood and here we are
Huh. Silicone DOES sound like a bitch to work with. I'll probably end up trying it sometime soon, I always like diving headfirst into projects and seeing what I end up with
Clay often contains sulphur compounds which will prevent silicone from curing. If you use clay, make sure it is sulphur free and sealed afterwards.
Would something like polyurethane prevent it from curing? What about something more natural like lots and lots of linseed oil
Again, avthepornfish on tumblr has basic toy tutorials, but for bigger seamless molds you will need to get a lot more techy.
>2016 + 1 not making organically grown wooden butt plugs.
He's a thrifty faggot on a budget. Get on the level
Haven't tried. No idea. This is part of the science. Testing or researching crosscompatibility between all sorts of materials.
i work close to one of their branches so its easy to pick up material on demand. They cover a broad spectrum and you are right, they do have a very knowledgeable staff.
If I coated it in polyurethane and it fucked up would I be able to sand it off or re-coat it with something else to make the mold form?
This is also what makes it a costly process to start making real toys. Ghetto toys are common but not marketable by any stretch. Plus you need a vacuum chamber, compressor, and other assorted equipment.
>this is the 2nd thing I've ever "carved," the first being a stock for a cosplay gun
Its refreshing when you find things in life that make perfect sense
Presumably. There is also a type of coating called xtc3 you can get at reynolds.
Kek. That was also my first time cosplaying and I only did it for like an hour or two at PAX so I'm not that far down the hole
I'll check that out if all else fails, thanks
Oh well guys. I gotta go back to work. Dongsmithing calls!
Have fun user, thanks for the tips
Lmao, that's a good name for it.
Alright, well for anyone still here I'll be getting off now. good luck if anybody decides to follow my lead and carve their own sex toys.
