Fun fun fun.
Once we stop renting and have room, I am totally building one.
And not one of these medical table looking future torture chamber type things. The real beefy kind made of solid hardwood with the bigggg capstan style crank. It needs to look Medieval (in my world ideally everything looks like it came from between AD1000 and 1750). Not be scary because of it's techno-medical looks. Piffle.
It's gonna look like it should be on the tour at Chillon or the Tower. I haven't decided on a horizontal solid table, or if I want it tilted up closer to vertical and use a rope-bed sort of arrangement. Oooh! Both!
I can't wait to start building it. Playing with it will be fun too, but ohhhhh, the building of it is gonna be great.....
BTW, if anyone really wants one, I have space to build them just not keep them...lol
I would LOVE for someone to ask for one. I'll even hand-deliver it (cause I ain't shipping that mamma-jamma!).
Oh, and Luna, I've dealt with people with that panic at being tied up. If it's done right, (and by the right person) you may still be afraid early on, but as it wears on, you'll enjoy more and fear less. Guaranteed. Just start small, and light with more mobility, and each time, a little less mobility and a little less. Before you know it you'll be wanting super strict stuff. Just takes trust and being willing to take a deep breath and step into the water.
