"The Better Built Bondage Book is truly a must-have for any kinky do-it-yourselfer! It does for dungeon building what the Dummies books have done for practically everything else!"
-- Suzanne SxySadist, professional dominant, BDSM educator

Skills

Where the Techniques section describes quick, single actions, the Skills section contains generic procedures that might be repeated frequently. For example, upholstering a board requires many steps, but the procedure doesn't change much whether you're working on a small board or a large one.

Generally, instructions in the Skills section require you to adapt slightly to meet your particular circumstances. This section teaches you about installing anchor points, putting different types of handles on your paddles and upholstering. Because Turk's Head Knots require significant planning and preparation (in addition to themselves being complicated), I've put them in the Skills section.

  "Douglas Kent educates readers who don't know which end of a hammer to pick up to the point where they can make some pretty sophisticated equipment. I learned a thing or two, and I've been building for fifty years. The technical illustrations are clear and informative
-- the art photos capture some of the magic of our passion. This book belongs on everyone's BDSM bookshelf. It is a must-read."
