 By the Techster&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When you have a family where the parents are a pair of engineers who
enjoy self- bondage and bondage experiments you know that creativity is
the rule of the game. Of course we have never let our children discover
our kinks. Last weekend our youngest son, a college student was going out
of town so the parents could play.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I love watching my wife in the nude and starting a bondage game for
the weekend would be fun. She is no slinky sex goddess. She has a bit of
a tummy, but her perky breasts that don&amp;rsquo;t sag, even without a bra and the
lean muscles of her back and legs are a major turn-on for me. When you&amp;rsquo;ve
been playing this game for 30+ years, as we have, coming up with something
new is more of a challenge than actually escaping from the bondage. It
was time for a new bondage device. The focal point of this scene would
be a locking metal collar that would prevent the wearer- captive from looking
left or right as well as down. I hope this doesn&amp;rsquo;t get too technical for
you. Please remember both my wife, Techie, and myself, Techster, are so
nicknamed because we are engineers.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>My Day as a Dog</title><link>/stories/2014/11/05/my-day-as-a-dog/</link><pubDate>Wed, 05 Nov 2014 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2014/11/05/my-day-as-a-dog/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;It is no secret that my wife, Techie, and I enjoy experimenting and playing adult games. Some of the things we do are not original but are inspired by something we have read in Gromet’s Plaza. In this case we read and enjoyed the bondage piece “My Life as a Dog” by Richard and I said, “May I be your pet for a day?“&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Techie gave me one of her “sneaky” smiles that should have been a warning; but I was determined to try it. Our med kit had some heavy-duty cling wrap tape I got that out. Then I went to my workshop and cut off two pieces of two three and a half inches of two-inch diameter soft rubber hose. In preparation for what was about to come I stripped down so the only thing I was wearing was my CB6000 male chastity device. We still had the locking collar, chromed chain leash left over from a Halloween costume party as well as the anti-bark shock collar we had gotten when we were caring for my son’s dog.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Beta Tester</title><link>/stories/2014/04/15/beta-tester/</link><pubDate>Tue, 15 Apr 2014 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2014/04/15/beta-tester/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Win $1000!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be a beta tester for the FolCol fabric restraint system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The local BDSM community knows me as “Techster” and if you’ve been a reader of Gromet’s Plaza you know that my better half ( make that wife, lover, and keyholder ) “Techie” and I have been exploring the world of BDSM and equipping many of the better dungeons in the Southeastern United States.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I saw this ad on a bulletin board at Domina Santiago’s dungeon I decided to see if it was real. I have designed bondage equipment for over 15 years.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Mummy Speaks</title><link>/stories/2012/12/14/the-mummy-speaks/</link><pubDate>Fri, 14 Dec 2012 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2012/12/14/the-mummy-speaks/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;It was one hell of an experience being mummified for three and a half days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The only reason I survived it was because Techie did a great of planning for my mummification and along a registered nurse monitored my condition. The catheter kept my bladder drained and the hollow butt plug allowed my (semi) solid waste (to keep from building up). My 6 times daily feeding kept my strength up and balanced my fluid intake.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Testing Time</title><link>/stories/2010/05/06/testing-time/</link><pubDate>Thu, 06 May 2010 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2010/05/06/testing-time/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;From time to time I develop a new piece of restraint, also known as “dungeonware”.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ever since my last job went away when the company I had been working for 15 years was a victim of the current economy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have been working hard to deal with this new lifestyle change and was able to keep our family going and pay the bills with a combination of odd jobs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These jobs include writing several books that were published by a vanity publisher so my return is low and maintaining a local newspaper column. To further boost our income I am working for a local Domina and helping her set up a new dungeon.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>(Self) Bound to please her</title><link>/stories/2009/06/26/self-bound-to-please-her/</link><pubDate>Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2009/06/26/self-bound-to-please-her/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I am one of the unlucky ones. This past spring the company I had worked for the last 15 years decided to reduce the number of employees.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although I had the highest proficiency rating I had two major things going against me:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(1) Unlike the service manager and assistant manager I was not a relative of the owner by blood or marriage.
(2) I was the oldest employee.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was given a liberal severance payment.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Slave to my Writing</title><link>/stories/2008/07/20/slave-to-my-writing/</link><pubDate>Sun, 20 Jul 2008 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2008/07/20/slave-to-my-writing/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Over the last 30 years I have written a weekly newspaper column and several books one of the books was a sea saga that was 895 pages long.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately when it came time for the final edit prior to presentation for publication it was about 10 years after finishing this work. The old word processing unit that I had used to write the book had long since died and there was no way to convert the series of 10 inch floppy discs to a currently used format. Fortunately I had two hard copies of the work. Short of sitting down with the computer and transcribing the original hard copy to the “Word” program I had no choice.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Our Game</title><link>/stories/2005/01/27/our-game/</link><pubDate>Thu, 27 Jan 2005 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2005/01/27/our-game/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Our Game by Techster
&lt;strong&gt;Our Game-1 ( The spouse’s Version)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just like Techster I have my spousal responses to time when Techster
is stressed out. Recently he experienced the worst thing a man a man can
live through he was the victim of a state budget cut and lost his upper
level management job of 9 years as Project Director of a state agency.
If you knew Techster you would be proud of the way he bounced back. He
gathered his and reference books, loaded his van and in 12 hours had a
job as an engineering consultant within 8 hours.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Steel Bound Pet</title><link>/stories/2004/02/24/steel-bound-pet/</link><pubDate>Tue, 24 Feb 2004 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2004/02/24/steel-bound-pet/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Steel Bound Pet&lt;/strong&gt;
by Techster
Steel Bound Pet  by Techster
My wife, Techie, knows I love to experiment with self-bondage. Unlike
many self-bondage practitioners my self-bondage relies on my wife of 35+
years, Techie, for release. If correctly designed there is no way I can
free myself. From time to time I enjoy placing myself in a position of
complete dependence on her. Today I wanted to use locking steel bondage.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Electric Lady</title><link>/stories/2003/03/06/electric-lady/</link><pubDate>Thu, 06 Mar 2003 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2003/03/06/electric-lady/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Electric Lady
By: The Techster&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is no secret that my lover, Techie, got me well with her last treat
and torment.
The combination collar/wrist/ankle spreader and cbt device had me helpless
and displayed in out annual halloween party.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now it is my turn and I promised her I would do &amp;ldquo;her right&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If my plan worked my marriage partner of 30 + years, wife, lover, part
time slave and part time dom, was going to experience the strongest orgasm
she had ever experienced.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>An Engineer’s Approach to Selfbondage</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/an-engineers-approach-to-selfbondage/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/an-engineers-approach-to-selfbondage/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Since a child I have always been fascinated by
bondage. Due to the fact that my wife of the past 30 plus years doesn&amp;rsquo;t
have similar fantasies I decided to give self bondage a try. After exploring
Gromet&amp;rsquo;s website and the gallery I knew I could be more creative.
I had to approach everything as if it were one of my engineering projects
at work.&lt;/p&gt;

 As you know self bondage is a game that my wife enjoys. This
year after paying bills and a son&amp;rsquo;s college tuition ( yes, I pay for my
youngest son&amp;rsquo;s college i cash- neither of my children are &amp;ldquo;Stuck&amp;rdquo; with
a loan to pay off it is my way of giving them more than I had.) This year
we both enjoyed a most unique gift I gave her. This is long so I broke
it into  chapters.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>On Display</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/on-display/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/on-display/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;The morning sun warmed Lynette&amp;rsquo;s bare back as she awoke. She was greeted
by Bill her husband, lover and master of 15 years. &amp;ldquo;Well I just dropped
the kids of at your mothers. Ready for the great experiment?&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;She jumped to her feet and hugged him,&amp;quot; Of course I&amp;rsquo;ve dreamt about
being your display slave for a long time. How do I look, I&amp;rsquo;ve been working
out?&amp;quot; She raised her arms and turned.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Horse</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/the-horse/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/the-horse/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;_&lt;/strong&gt;
*&lt;em&gt;The Horse_&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;A mechanical
engineers experiment with self bondage and automated release&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;By: the techster&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After my first experiment with the stocks I decided to try something
new and more portable. I began with the “bondage horse” concept but did
some careful measurements so it would be very secure, not like the “one
size fits all” approach of most bondage furniture makers. I experimented
with the legs of the horse and discovered that most bondage horses are
nothing more than modified saw horses and lack the secure restraint and
stability that a pro-domme really wants.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Would you...</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/would-you.../</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/would-you.../</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;*
Would you do it
here or there?
Would you do it
on the stair?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From time to time I like to place myself at my wife&amp;rsquo;s mercy. 
She is NOT a fan of BDSM so when she discovers me nude, helpless, fully
restrained by my own hand with appropriate toys for tease or torment (and
the keys for my release) laid out before her; she has been known to take
full advantage of the situation.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
