Darn it, I came up with two good names in a row, I thought it was the start of a new trend but I couldn’t think of anything other than the descriptive but utilitarian “Strappado Pallet” this time around.<\/p>\n

The Strappado Pallet\u00a0is my gift for the 2014 Femdom Hunt<\/a> so it’s free to eagle eyed visitors to my main shop<\/a>\u00a0starting 17 October through 2 November. \u00a0It’s loosely based on CaptnLash’s “Outdoor Discipline”<\/a>\u00a0(a free and hassle free Deviant Art account is probably necessary to view that). As you might know I’m somewhat crow-like in that I’m easily distracted by shiny things, and there’s lots of shiny in that image so I simply HAD to build it:<\/p>\n

\"Strappado<\/a><\/p>\n

See… \u00a0How could I not?<\/p>\n

Like most of my bondage equipment the Strappado Pallet uses a fairly simply menu system:<\/p>\n

\"Strappado<\/a><\/p>\n

Or, if you’re the device’s owner:<\/p>\n

\"Strappado<\/a>I’ll go into settings in a moment, but first the basics. As is customary I’ll start with…<\/p>\n

The Self Bondage<\/strong> button and I’ll start by saying DON’T CLICK THAT YET! The Self Bondage button does exactly what it says it does and tries to grab the person who clicks it. If successful it will set a random timer and of course prevent the newly captured captive from escaping. They won’t even be able to see the timer.<\/p>\n

The Scan<\/strong> button will look nearby for potential victims and present the person who clicked it with a list of the closest nine from which to select a victim.<\/p>\n

And Help<\/strong> leads to this web page.<\/p>\n

See? Simple, right?<\/p>\n

Once you’ve got a captive on the Strappado Pallet\u00a0you’ll notice that it may be a bit of a tight fit. Y’see I’m what most people in SL would call short. They’d be wrong because I’m utterly perfect, but there you go. Since I build all my gear around myself – literally, I create a basic pose and build the device while I’m sitting on it – everything starts out Mina sized.<\/p>\n

Since most people in SL aren’t utterly perfect like me, the Strappado Pallet\u00a0has a rather nifty re-sizing system built into it. Click any of the pipes and suddenly the Strappado Pallet will look like it’s come under attack by Robin Hood cause there will be arrows everywhere…<\/p>\n

Get it? Arrows… Robin Hood… Anyone? \u00a0Hmmpfh, moving on then. Clicking any of the arrows moves the associated parts slightly in that direction.<\/p>\n

\"Strappado<\/a><\/p>\n

The left\/right arrows are actually in and out arrows. \u00a0They move the corresponding pieces either towards or away from the center of the Strappado Pallet.<\/p>\n

If the captive needs to be adjusted they can use the Page Up and Page Down keys on their computer keyboard to move themselves up or down, and the cursor forward and backward to adjust their position horizontally.<\/p>\n

Starting with version 1.2.0 I’ve incorporated my database managed resizer system into the Strappado Pallet.\u00a0 This is a bit of spiffiness that happens automatically saves all of your personal settings including your adjusted avatar position to an external database.\u00a0 Then the next time you sit on a Pallet – well a Pallet version 1.2.0 or higher – it will resize itself to your custom settings.<\/p>\n

Like I said, spiffy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Touching any other part of the\u00a0Strappado Pallet will bring up the Captive menu\u00a0which is pretty straightforward:<\/p>\n

Release<\/strong>\u00a0let’s your captive got at once and returns the\u00a0Strappado Pallet to the last saved position.<\/p>\n

Timer<\/strong> lets you set a delayed release.<\/p>\n

Settings<\/h4>\n

If you’re the owner of a Strappado Pallet then congratulations on your excellent taste in bondage equipment! And also here’s how you can customize your Strappado Pallet. Start\u00a0by clicking on the device and then selecting the Settings option from the pop up menu. You’ll get a new and somewhat busier looking menu:\"Strappado<\/a><\/p>\n

Don’t let all the buttons scare you, I’m not smart enough to make things that are that complicated \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The Access<\/strong> buttons let you manage who can use the Strappado Pallet\u00a0menus. There are three options, Public meaning anyone one can open the menu. Group meaning only members of the same group as the Strappado Pallet\u00a0can access the menus, and only while they have that group active. And Private meaning it’s yours and yours alone. NOTE – The Access buttons control who can access the menu, but anyone using RLV with an active relay can be captured.<\/p>\n

This Self Bondage<\/strong> button won’t grab you. Instead it lets you select the maximum amount of time that the Strappado Pallet\u00a0will hold people who click the other Self Bondage button. Keep in mind that this is the maximum amount possible, but since it’s a random timer it can be anything from one minute up to the value you set. That’s why we call it random \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The Range<\/strong> buttons simply let you set how far the Strappado Pallet\u00a0will scan when looking for potential victims. The range of the range is from 5 to 95 meters in 5 meter increments.<\/p>\n

The Save Pos<\/strong> button lets you store the current positions of the Strappado Pallet as the default.<\/p>\n

The Reset<\/strong> button performs a script reset and returns the Strappado Pallet\u00a0to its last saved position.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to see a demo there\u2019s one in my shop<\/a>, and of course if you have any questions please feel free to drop me an IM in world<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
