Great Spanking Furniture
Photos — By Adele on 23 March, 2007 10:16 pmThe Sunday Times last week have provided me with a wonderful picture of a spanking stool. Unfortunately, it was on a fashion page, and – although they listed the source of every shred of clothing the model was wearing, the furniture-maker didn’t get a credit.
I don’t think they’ve quite explained to the girl how to bend over correctly, though.

Oh, I’d explain it to the young lady with pleasure.
Stand up straight – face the stool, raise the skirt, panties down to the floor and lay across the stool.
We’ll handle the rest. :-)
So what are the minimum requirements for a piece of spanking furniture? Serious suggestions please – I’m putting up cash for this.
Spanking furniture or the lack of it – a pet peeve. Yes, we have craftswomen and men who would re-equip the dungeons of the Tower of London and Warwick Castle in a trice; but designing and building a light, strong, stable “vanillerable” stool or small table with secret tether points which will fit into the average small house or say IKEA-styled flat seems to surpass their ingenuity. Look at all those wonderful folding library stepladders and 18th C writing tables with mysterious compartments! In fact, every time I fold-out one of those miniature units to produce a sturdy and piviotable table, which neatly retracts back into the armrest of my exit-row airplane seat, I think, “Could a nifty spanking table/bench be just the product Airbus Industrie needs to extract the company from its financial mire?” :)
OK Adele’s munchkins; how about Adele’s Great Spanking Furniture contest? Two categories: 1) Ready to wear. 2. A contest to produce a prototype that can be put into production at a unit cost of less than £250/$500, for which Redhead will award £1,000/$2,000 for the design, patent and productions plans – subject to conditions, and rigorous volunteer testing (I’ve already got ideas of who could be on the adjudicating panel). Any takers? And the rest of you – what are the minimum requirements?

Redhead –
Requirements take on different poses…
Basics in any engineering operation involve solving the problem the client
is having at the present time – or perceiving to have.
Painting a room in a warm colour will make the client feel warmer, even though the actual temperature in the room hasn’t changed.
Another requirement is functionality. What does it do? How is it used?
With specific regard to spanking furniture – the piece should have the following attributes:
-functionality – does it work, and does it fulfill the needs?
-adaptability – how well can it be converted from ‘vanilla’ to ‘kinky’?
-construction – how strong it is – do the materials used support the need?
-assembly – does it require assembly or conversion? How easy is it?
-size – how large is it and where can it be transported to – or hidden?
-weight – how heavy is it – and is it easy to handle?
Other attributes include:
-color – is it appealing?
-sound – how noisy is it to assemble or disassemble?
-ergonomics – how does it feel when used? How many people tested it?
-manufacturing – how easy and expensive is it to manufacture?
-transport – how easy is it to ship to a customer locally? Or in Venezuela?
-materials – what is it made of, and how long is it expected to last?
I’d be interested in producing drawings and images as research into this
concept. Good functional spanking furniture is definitely very rare.
And needed.
Comments and ideas welcomed.

I’ve had a secret piece of multi-purpose furniture brewing in my head for years, I just wish I had the skills to make it, it’s like a coffee table very deep in the body, but it unfolds into a mini multitude of padded trestles, up and over kneeling stool, short flat bed with a raised centre (padded of course) various small ring holes for sliding Karabiners through, an small drawer somewhere to hold short lengths of rope and Karabiners (black of course) assorted paddles and “devices”.
There is a fantastic Coffee table (Storage box) in John Lewis in dark red root wood (I think it’s Yew); it’s about 2,1/2 by 3,1/2 feet long and about 15 to18 inches deep, stoutly hinged. It is a perfect base unit to become a spankophiles very own “Transformer” “discipline machine in disguise”.
The beauty of it would be (and I’m probably not alone here) is that good sessions do not (as far as I’m concerned) play out as well in the boudoir, as they do in the lounge, where a good quality corner sofa with a chaise extension is one of the greatest “already available” pieces of kinky furniture. With this arrangement there is less need for portability, as the unit is in-situ and just a part of the over overall furnishing, A bit like “Pandora’s” four poster would be in the bedroom, or a good roll back leather dinning chair is in the dinning room/area.
Yes, an interesting piece of furniture, too bad they didn’t list when one could pick up such and item.
BTW recently watched your movie To Cane a Mocking Goth. Very good work :)
I know this picture is from a few years ago but today is the first time that I have seen it. I am quite certain that is the self same stool that I had in my workshop for repair about two years ago! It has the same bracket arrangement under the top and now I can see why I had to lathe turn two new stretchers for the repair; I did not realise that it was French and therefore all in metric. Thanks for the ‘flashback’
