Note: This is part 3 of an occasional ongoing "how to" series on rope bondage.
Part 1 of the series, How to Tie a Rope Harness Part I, is here.
Part 2 of the series, How to Tie a Frog Tie, is hereAs you might well imagine, none of these posts is even remotely work-safe

Hey that looks familiar. :)

[tacit]

Yep! Same harness I used to tie you to the bench on Saturday. :)

Dude, that model
s hair looks like it gets in the way a lot, maybe you should tell her to get a buzz cut or something ;-)

HERETIC!!! The crowbar for you!

NEVAR!!!!!!!!!

That's a REALLY long time *snicker*

Again, thanks. I think I could do that from memory.
(Sort of spoils the effect when you have to flip through your notes, don't you think?)

I've found that doing something like this once pretty much is enough to commit it to memory; the same basic ideas are used throughout a lot of rope bondage, so you tend to see the same sorts of things cropping up again and again. :)

After Tacit taught me this the first time, I knew it well enough to teach it to several co-workers ... tacit's karada is now making the rounds through the Orlando rigging community

You must have some interesting co-workers. I have a big grin on my face imagining our workplace populated by kinksters. That would be a hoot.
I've added this post (Tacit's original one) to my memories, so I hope he doesn't take it down before the "time is right."

*purrs* That looks delicious - I shall have to talk to Sparky and get him to try it out on me :)

That looks strange to me..

(From Seswu/MyDungeonSpace.com, about the Shinju tutorial)

I've seen a couple of breast bondages, and nearly all of them finish off the wrappings around the breasts first, and goes over the shoulders only after that. Then, if the arms were included, the security wrappings.

Your shinju goes breastwrapping, then the shoulders, and then the other breastwrapping.
Is there a particular advantage to this since you do it this way, and do you know if it would be problematic to use for suspensions?

Re: That looks strange to me..

[tacit]

Six of one, half a dozen of the other, I think. I tend to do the tie "backward" because I find it's easier to do (and I have developed a highly efficient form of laziness). I haven't ever tried this design with suspension, though, so I can't speak to how well it'd work.
