I got a new gag - Strappado - 27 Jun 2020

I wanted a harness gag with rubber ball for quite a long time, but never ordered - mostly because they are a bit harder to find, look cheap in the shop a
eady or have useless features or they are simply too expensive. This was a compromise on quality, and I was lucky. The ball is nice, the leather imitation for the harness is fairly qood quality, not too hard and not too thin. And, the best part, it actually fits my head perfectly, even the chin-strap. There is only one drawback: The ball diameter is 4,5 cm, and that is quite a lot for me (I think, the usual size is about 3,5 cm). I wonder, if I will get used to it. If not, this is not for long sessions.

After almost a year, I can tell, that I won't get used much. However, I don't regret having bought this gag, it is the best fitting and adaptable gag, I have had so far, except for the size of the ball. The main purpose to use it is in short sessions, which aim to relax quickly.
I like the chin strap, because, if well set, it really keeps my jaw up.

There is a massive difference in comfort for small differences of design of the gag and harness, I have one that is perfectly secure and comfortable except the ball is the absolute largest I can still use. Then I have another that gets more use with a smaller more comfortable gag but it's getting more and more wear. Then I have like 5 cheap ones that all suck and even hurt.

I got a nice panel gag recently, the ball was a very comfortable size, worked well in keeping me quiet, but after an hour or so, I realised that one of the straps was cutting into the side of my mouth causing a lot of pain. Had to release myself and it took several days before the pain eased enough to be no longer noticeable.

Question?
Is it possible to replace the ball with a smaller ball?

Not by design, but if you drill through the rivets that hold the ball, you can put another strap with a smaller ball.
the original ball is a one-piece-thingy with the "straps" extruded directly from the ball. Look at the image below.
I have seen gags with exchangeable balls, fixed with stud fasteners instead of the rivets. Perhaps those would work as replacement.
I actually wonder, how hard it would be to create a full gag harness from scratch, starting with some straps, hardware and a rubber ball...

Well, if you a
eady have a ball gag harness, then you have a pattern to work with.

I was able to work with Alex over at Bondage Webbing to get a custom ballgag harness made.

I had purchased a normal ball gag from a seller on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/251722828/silicone-ball-gag-medical-grade-with
I had accidentally stumbled on to the perfect ball size for myself, and loved how it felt. So I purchased just the ball from the Etsy seller, and had it shipped over to Alex to put into a harness. The entire turnaround time was a week and a half mostly due to shipping. Now I have a harness that fits me, a ball that feels great, and it all cost me less than $100. Given how much use I'm getting out of it, I would call that a fairly solid investment. đ
Etsy may be expensive at times, but the amount of use I have gotten out of stuff I purchased has been well worth it. The sleep sack I bought last year is still going strong and being used with regularity. I love it when I get a chance to "showcase" all of my purchases at the same time with my girlfriend. đ„°
