This girl has made no secret of the fact that one of the main things that attracted to Grimly in the first place has always been his ability to design things himself. To see an idea, and put his own twist upon it. To make it work. To make it work for HER especially. He literally puts blood, sweat and tears into what he makes in some cases. And love.
This girl loves that about him. She loves wondering what he will come up with next, how she will react to it, how it will look, what reaction it might have amongst people. It’s kind of a sort of smug proud feeling ‘look what my totally amazing dom can do’ . This girl sometimes worries that it’s maybe showing off a bit. And?
Some people have asked recently for help with designs for some of Grimly’s more intricate inventions. Sorry, No. It takes a lot of imagination to come up with some of this stuff, time, patience, and money to buy components and materials. The belt particularly has taken him several months of weekends to get to this stage. So why would he give up his ideas so easily? Besides, the ideas go from mental imagery and prototype to item. There’s no drawing stage as such, no blueprint. In fact, designs probably wouldn’t help people make items unless they had the technical ability to begin with. JG Leathers has quite a lot of sketches of components of the creature…but no one has emulated it.
This girl and Grimly want to hopefully inspire people into thinking up their own ideas – not copying what they have come up with slavishly.
When Grimly comes up with an idea, it’s normally inspired by other things on the internet, in stories, in his own head, by the ideas of his slave. A combination of sources. In fact, pulling ideas together and personalising is it one of the most fun parts. He has always said he enjoys the creative process and the time in the shed as much as the time in the playroom. Well ok. Maybe not *quite* as much.
This girl wants people to be amazed by what her Dom has come up with for her. She wants them to be inspired by it, and to go off and work out similar things for themselves, whether they be simpler or more complex. But, there is a certain warm fuzzy feeling sometimes about knowing a lot of what he’s made is unique.
It’s not that he won’t make things for other people. He will. Using their imagination, their input and his interpretation of what they want. That’s something he will do for close friends, and maybe one day as a bespoke business but that’s a long way down the line. He’s tried running a toy business before, and got sick of making lots of the same thing, for very little profit. It removed the fun of new challengs, and the personal aspect. So, if he does it again, it will be bespoke. Though, one of the issues is that quite often doing things for financial profit sort of it takes away some of the fun and fantasy. It’s Grimly and this girl’s dreams…and whether that can be turned into a business….maybe not but we’ll see…watch this space.
This girl and Grimly have spoken before about having a toy instruction site. For basic things to begin with. This girl sees no reason why BDSMers should pay kink tax for toys, especially basic bondage gear. So this is hopefully something that will happen in the future, to help people out, to get them designing things, thinking up things themselves having fun with their own creativity. That’ll hopefully happen when they live together so she can photograph steps for things. Though, there are a great number of good basic instruction sites already – see the home made bdsm links to the side.
But as far as his more outrageous designs go…
well….if you have the skill…by all means reverse engineer.. and have fun doing so! But, don’t expect Grimly and this girl to make it quick and easy for you as it cheapens the effort that Grimly has put in, and it’s part of this girl’s fantasy that she enjoys the unique creations from the mind and shed of her sadistically creative owner.

I agree about the homemade bdsm stuff meaning a lot to you. Master Anakin loves making his own toys and furniture and we are in the midst of figuring out what to do with a fold out bed that we have tried out for bondage. I think there are many possibilities for it. I looked at JG leather’s yesterday and saw lots of pictures of the Creature. I have to say that it intrigued me deeply.
Hugs,

I totally love your Owner’s creativity. I just oggle the items and try to figure out how they were made. I’m not into electrics though so that’s not going to happen, but some of the other items I can completely sit and try to figure out
Love them!

I totally Love Grimly’s designs and his and yours lifestyle ideas, I share a lot of the same interest in my own desires. I also LOVE JG-Leathers and the creature and I absolutely love his drawings and the details he does into in it’s production and how every little part works and is made. His machine is amazing and I just dream of it’s amazing power and what it would be life to experience it.
But all being said, I think it’s good that your protective of your Dom, you need to be…he’s your Master and his ideas belong to you…it’s good that you are over protective of him and don’t want to share him! His designs and ideas are amazing and I love reading about them, but I understand your desire to keep him from doing favors for everyone, that would take him away from you a lot.

I wish I were as handy with tools as Grimly. If I were and had the time and/or tools, cindy would be in for a hell of a “fun” time.
I looked at Grimly’s picture of the belt on Flickr and I have a couple of quick comments, really compliments to both of you.
First, that picture along with those on your blog show that the belt is a high-quality belt. He should be proud of his work.
Second, TG: you’ve lost weight. You’ve always looked great but that picture was awesome.
Keep up the good work.

Luna, am really pleased gives you something to oggle!
Wheelman, i should hopefully be getting to experience the creature in a couple of months so watch this space
I wouldn’t say Grimly’s ideas belong to me, they don’t, they belong to him, they sometimes i have an input. We like sharing our ideas, i think the point i was trying to make was just that we want to inspire people without us having to tell them exactly what to do word for word and provide our blueprints and designs for no thanks. Someone recently commented to Grimly that they wanted him to provide a ’shopping list’ of what we had so they could have exactly the same. What’s the point of that? It’s more fun building your toy collection yourself without trying to keep up with us…which is no easy task i’m sure. I’m happy for him to take on projects for friends at his own choosing – his choice – not mine and i’m happy for him to get the opportunity to do anything that gets his creative juices flowing even if it is to my own personal detriment!
Tom, you have own talents and the modfications you’ve made to your own belts are pretty impressive! Thanks for your comments…you know what us girls are like about our figures…he keeps telling me to not moan about mine…just human nature i guess!
