does duct tape work?

In my experience, it works very well. It does make it hard to fully expand your lungs, but I imagine that could be fixed by holding in a deep breath as you wrap it around. And also you should wear something under the tape so it doesn't damage your skin.
Takes a while to get the hang of where to tape for ultimate flatness.

There's a lot of emotion here, particularly in the second frame. Nicely done!

Pic 3: my thoughts exactly. Binding is such tedium, wish i didn't have to do it! She's got it good though, I'm a DD-DDD D:

The model has a very nice body. :3
And I don't mean to sound creepy when I said that. xD

What kind of material was the last one made out of?

Rai-Starstreak In reply to WingsOfTheFallen [2010-06-26 23:43:59 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, I'm sure she wouldn't find it creepy XD

I think that one is made from upholstry fabric...but the rest of us have just used a double layer of regular woven cotton that also works quite fine.

WingsOfTheFallen In reply to Rai-Starstreak [2010-06-27 04:24:56 +0000 UTC]

Sweet! Thanks. :3
I've been trying to find a fabric that works well for a binder, but so far nothing has worked well.

Well with that kind of closuer, woven is better. I think it kills your ribs less than a tensor bandage too.

duct tape over a sports bra? I never thought of that.... Hmm...

Rai-Starstreak In reply to makoto-chiyoru [2010-05-15 18:18:54 +0000 UTC]

It works pretty well, especially if the sports bra is a size too small.

Be careful, though. Duct tape is not flexible and does not move with your ribs the way cloth binders do, so if you wrap too tight you can severely damage your ribs and your lungs.

I will make sure to be careful.

Love for the binders. <3 From experience, duct tape is hella painful. 0_- Ouch.
What can I say? I love the concept, the different hues and just everything. Beautiful!

What are you using in the last one??

I would say that one of them is my favorite, but I love them all so much!

Rai-Starstreak In reply to CottenCandyPrince [2010-05-13 22:17:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!

The last one is a custom design, made with fabric and closed with bra clasps. It works well, and is a lot less painful than the other two!

CottenCandyPrince In reply to Rai-Starstreak [2010-05-13 22:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Do you think maybe that can be worked on to become a full, passable binder?
I'd like to try if you'd let me and I'm asking because it was your original idea.

You're very welcome by the way.

Well my bro came up with the idea, and all of us kinda worked on that. I'd love to see if you could turn it into something like that!
We used woven fabric so that it would flatten, but not constrict in the way that tensor bands do.
