Seattle, WA -- Testing the new floating bondage table went exceedingly well. I had promised first blood to Christopher (pictured right and below) and we finally had an opportunity to run a needle scene Thursday morning. The boy was excited and definitely in the right headspace.

After setting up I improvised a configuration to string weights from using bungee cords, four carabineers and a suspension ring. Typically, I've seen crib bars on bungee cords for this purpose, but the arrangement worked fine so there's no immediate need to find another solution.

We ran about fifty needles all together starting with 25-gage and quickly working up to 19-gage. The weights were used to maintain stimulation until it was time to extract the needles and bring the scene to an end. As promised, Christopher's blood was the first spilt on the new table. From the look on his face I will assume he was pleased.

Last night, Christopher was off so I took him to the Eagle. We had some fun entertaining the locals with a little rope work. Christopher looks good in an ebi (shrimp tie) on top a speaker.
