Although it may be 'technically' possible, i would seriously advise against using that much heat near someone's neck & face. besides...he likes being able to take it off to put on other ones so its not something we would consider. Thanks for your comments. well, we wouldnt take the risk, given that its not just a sensitive component its my neck we’re talking about here!

You'd be melting a volume of material about two tenths of a milllimeter across by a tenth of a millimmeter deep. At work we frequently TIG-weld stainless steel near sensitive components. It's all a matter of having sufficient heat sinks, and having a weld depth that's just enough to make a seal and no more.

However the melting point of stainless steel is 1400 deg C and it is a very good heat conductor. Can you see the flaw in your idea? Cheers Grimly Ralph,

If he were to weld it over and buff it smooth there'd be no fastenings for anyone to notice and comment on. I'm sure that's within his capabilities. “The one thing that always concerns this girl the most about it is whether someone in the family will notice that its screwed on.”

Hopefully i have the balance about right...or thereabouts...but oh yes there is room for improvement! DP....is is that obvious?? He says I keep boiling his bunny ·ref fatal attraction. (sigh* lol Tim...the collar is solid so i cant really wear any other jewellery with it, and it does mean a lot to me, so I will just have to get over the small issues I have. You know what...I hate your idea...I hate chastity shut up shut up lol. Grimly on the other hand will think its great! Pet, I think for the most part its subtle enough, but then I think the majority of people are really unobservant about it. I've had a woman finger it a bit when I was at an airport in France and then seem satisfied it wasn't a threat. I've worn it in front of my mum and dad before so, they are used to it a little, just the last time i saw her i was sleeping in same room which normally wouldn't so thats why I was more worried about it.! Oh i know i shouldnt fret about it..i do love wearing it really...just there are days when i doubt stuff rather idiotically. thanks for your comments guys TG xx Hi Shawna, thanks for commenting…sure it is part of the fun to be kept in check, i know he doesn’t want a doormat or a robot but then he doesn’t want too much of a brat either, at least not all the time !

Parents thought it was lovely jewelry. However, i was prone to wearing heavy art pieces prior so it wasn’t shocking. Only problem i had was forgetting to request removal prior to a dental appointment. Simply explained i didn’t have a key...sure they had a few comments after i left! Knowing how it feels when it is off, perhaps take a chance to see if she notices? Same silver band around my neck and on one wrist during the day.

As for the times you feel the collar needs to be off, why not have it so something else goes on or in instead? You are not a chastity fan, but being belted when you are collarless might be a good way to never feel you are out of his control, yet not obvious to the world.

The collar is always an interesting aspect of D/S, because of the level of symbolism, but also because of the physical aspect. Its not to surprising that you'd want to rebel against it, certainly not to a degree. Rebellion is a part of being a sub isn't it? Isn't that part of why subs need a top? Its probably also one of those things that not having it on, feels strange after a period of time. So, enjoy your collar, enjoy being you, and ask your Master to punish your properly for your rebellion. That's part of the fun of being a bratty sub, right?
