OC Made a Bondage Serving Tray with an integrated Breast Vise NSFW
I have been lurking in this subreddit for a couple of months now, looking at all the different ideas and projects you people have. Very inspiring and i enjoy checking in every now and then. Thought i might finally share my own project i started back in 2024 when i was still doing my apprenticeship as a joiner and managed to finish and "mass produce" this and last year. I am BIG into the entire "Serving" and "Slave" aspect and me and my wife enjoy it a lot. So i got some inspiration from other makers online and made my own version of a Bondage Serving Tray.
First i made two routing patterns made out of multiplex as its great for tracing. Sawed my Oakwood (one of my favourite woods), planed it and glued it using PU glue. Then i traced everything down. The Slits are meant for optional nipple play. I had to drill the holes and use a jigsaw to do a rough cutout, then use my routing pattern again to make the holes nice and round. I used a third routing pattern for the leather inlay, routing at a depth of about 3mm to let the leather stick out nicely. That was the biggest hassle for me and i still need to work on improvement there. For sanding, i started with 120 grit discs and went up to 220 using water. In general, i can recommend using water instead of oil (if you plan on oiling your wood) as it works just as well as oiling it but doesnt clog up your discs as fast. Just be careful to not overdo is as it may result in your wood warping. So i used water 120 to 220 and later 300 to 600 grit for an ultra smooth finish using oil. The two brass toppings on the threaded screws used to be brass nuts that i grinded down and polished. I also used Resin 3D printing to make custom parts for the leather strap holdings at the bottom of the screws. I changed the rivets from normal ones to threaded ones as i got feedback from a customer that they werent holding (sadly) and added stainless steel strips to the neck strap for extra weight support. Using a stamping tool usually used in car fixes/riveting of car sheet metal, i managed to punch holes through the steel as drilling resulted in my fingers almost getting decapitated multiple times. For the leather corners, i had to use a woodfiller to fill up any gaps as i hand cut the leather using a ruler and scalpel, which resulted in some unclean edges, different sizes and so on.
Overall, i would say one board takes me around 6 hours (being very generous with the time haha) to complete, not including downtime from glues to harden and oils to sink in. If youre interested in more BTS you can check my IG account. I have got a separate post there where i show much more detail in how i made it. I did half of the work in the company i work at and the rest in my own workshop where i have a big pillar drilling machine that i got myself last year and a bunch of Makita Power tools.
Im pretty happy with how it turned out at the end! Love the part where you have to figure out how you make different parts work with each other, figure out ways to solve problems and so on. It was a great project! Let me know what you think, i love improvement ideas and criticism :) Working on my next two projects now which include steam bending wood and a serving tray for wine/sparkling wine glasses.
