Sir Bart writes,

I’ve had many inquiries about the Box. I built it a few years ago when I first started dating the man I would marry. He wanted to be able to lock me away in a box, and (being the bondage McGyver I am) I decided I wanted such a thing to be both ergonomic and very secure — and a bit evil, because the idea of it all just turned me on. A lot.

I started with a cherry shelving cabinet that I already had but no longer used. It was unusually deep, but not deep enough for the job. I cut it up and began modifying it, increasing the depth and reinforcing it with another layer of wood inside. I had no idea if this was going to really come together or not. Most of the added wood I had on hand, but all the hardware, screws, wood glue, padding and covering, wheels, etc cost far more than I expected. To reproduce this would cost a small fortune now.

It took me about three months of nights (and occasional weekends) to complete.

We still play with it often— it has a lot of miles on it now but its still solid as a rock. It’s built like a safe, there simply is no escape once strapped inside and the closure pieces padlocked in place. It’s impossible to move more than a half inch or less in any direction, yet the seating position and padding make it very sustainable. We use it mostly with electro play, and fighting against all the restraints as hard as I can simply wears me out, yet the Box remains completely unyielding.

 

And Sir Dart writes,

Way back when, I had seen a wooden box like this appear in Bound and Gagged magazine, and dreamed big time I could experience it. As you can see from Bob Wingate’s post, the dream came true (God I look so young!):

BobWingate_BOXThis blog post by Bob Wingate tells about that visit.

I have had fantasies about captivity like this ever since I was a little kid. There are actually TWO early memories of seeing this kind of box bondage with the head protruding that come to mind that will probably amuse you, but I still remember vividly seeing these as a kid and being HUNGRY to have captivity like that.

The first was actually from this Popeye cartoon where he visits Ali Baba and the forty thieves – Bluto being Ali Baba. If you scroll the video to about 16.13, you’ll see the predicament he finds himself in.

Short and sweet — and it turned me on BIG TIME!

I’m trying to locate the other early influence for you. It was from an old X-Men comic book (my fave) where the team was dealing with a villain named Arcade. At one point 3 of the wives of the X-men, and Nightcrawler, were kidnapped by him and held prisoner in fancy pyramid shaped boxes with their heads protruding in the same manner. I remember accompanying my mother to the grocery store so I could constantly go to the magazine section and repeatedly look at that strip.

Anyhow, hope you find this information entertaining. The Box is a legend, we’re finding!

 

 

 

Metal would like to thank Sir Bart and Sir Dart for sharing this information!

Self-bondage on steroids

Blog reader Louis made a self-bondage contraption — complete with magnetic locks and a timer mechanism. Check it out:

Louis writes:

For my system there are four timers: 1) A Harbor Freight programmable timer at the power outlet that turns off the entire system for 15 minutes every morning. 2) An enable timer that turns off (currently) at 4 hours. 3) A delay start timer so I need to push the start switches (both of them) for 2 seconds to start the primary timer. 4) And the primary timer that I can change the time on.

The timers can be set for up to 9,990 hours (1.13 years). Three (3) of the counters are CNT-35-96. No, I didn’t spend anywhere near $146 for the timers. They were used, usually less than $10.

There is a 300-pound magnetic lock for each wrist. I can’t pull them loose. At the front of each hand is two start switches. I need to engage one on the left side and one on the right side for 2 seconds to lock the locks. There is a switch on the back of each magnetic lock to release the locks. The switches on the control box can be set for both switches, either switch, can’t be disengaged, or a specific switch. The rotary switch connects the circuit output to the other connections. (Currently not used.)

It feels a LOT safer when I get both hands free at the end of a session. I now play, almost all of the time, with gloves on. I would not do that when I needed to manipulate a key with one hand to get free.

Here are more pictures of the setup:

Metal would like to thank Louis for the pictures and information.

FYI: Louis also designed the jail cell time lock in Yossie’s cell. The jail cell time lock has been updated, replacing the sprinkler timer with a CNT-35-96.

More pictures of Metalbond readers showing off their neck chains and padlocks

I love this stuff. More Metalbond readers have sent in pictures of themselves wearing chain and padlock around their necks. See below.

 

 

hurley (aka @hurleypuppy on Twitter, gearboy80 on Recon) sent this shot:

Hurley

“New year, new collar,” hurley writes. “It’s smaller than the old one, so it’ll hide a bit more so i can wear it during work hours.”

 

 

Fuck Puppy (fcukpuppy.tumblr.com) sent this one:

FckPuppy

Fuck Puppy writes, “I have warn mine now for 3 years and it’s only been off once in all that time for a clean for about an hour. The word ‘Master’ has long ago worn off the padlock. It only came with one key, which has spent the last 3 years on my Sir’s car keys.”

 

 

And CREUSS sent these shots:

“Please note the chain was extra-tight,” CREUSS wrote.

 

 

 

Thanks for the pictures, fellas!
