Actually, the best place to get stocks and "bonds" would be from a brokerage house. (Sorry...I just HAD to...) 😛

I just made what I think are the ultimate foot tickling stocks! Been working on the idea for a long time. ( BTW, This is chris not Little Redhead) I tried it out the other night and it worked like a dream. Totally helpless feet!
I sen some pics and mpgs of our tickling session to Tickle Town and I think he might post them in his July update. I think you should take a look, they are very simple to make and VERY effective!
Don't order anything! Make these yourself!!

Depends on where you are and how much money you're willing to spend.

Gear made specifically for Bondage purposes is almost always *really* expensive, but there are some people who sell on eBay who have very reasonable prices.

There are some very fine carpenters who specialize in Bondage furniture, but they're not cheap.

I've made bondage equipment with some help from some of our local gathering folks. We made a bench long ago but that's now been replaced by a table/rack contraption we came up with at our last New Year's party. We call it the Hartman Rack.

It's got foot stocks at one end. Then it's got rings and clets at the upper end to secure ropes and such to stretch the victim. It's made out of really wide beams of wood that are quite heavy and we secure it with latches to some sawhorses.

It's large enough to stretch out a man over 6 feet tall and it can hold 12 people to eat dinner! LOL

We really did that. We ate our Turkey dinner on it New Years Eve as well as the Crepe Suzette for dessert!

We just used our imagination when creating it. Just look at pictures of stocks and such to get your ideas. The measurements for around the ankles has to be done carefully to ensure you can accomodate both skinny and larger ankles but padding often helps with that.

My only problem with it is that it's HUGE and is very difficult to move and to store. But since it also serves as a table we've figured out what to do with it! LOL

Oh if they only knew!

Stocks? Make 'em yourself. QBWeaver described the ones we made, and they're fine implements. Stocks are, after all, an old and fairly simple concept. The important part, for tickling play at least, is padding on the leg holes, 'cause a body can massively bruise ankles kicking around.

As for my personal bondage arsenal, I've been accumulating it for years. Most of the leather works have been bought in San Francisco, though there's stuff from Philedelphia, and of late, from Canada. There's also a good deal of hardware in my little leather bag of tricks, including a half dozen dual-sided clasps, some caribeanners (sp?) and a lot of lengths of rope.

It all depends on what you intend to do. Mine's multi-purpose, but I favor simple leather cuffs for wrists and ankles, and clasps to attach 'em to rope. Why clasps? Consideration for my 'lee. She may need out quickly, whether from cramping or other immediate need, and a quick release clasp solves a lot of trouble. Better safe than stupid, after all.

I've accumulated a number of tickling implements, but, happily, my lady doesn't need 'em. Fingers work JUST fine for that woman. 😉
