Hi from nannanli — DIY padded furniture builds - nannanli - 23 Oct 2026
Hi, I'm nannanli — I build custom bondage furniture and DIY pieces: padded loungers, foot-stock frames, hanging boxes.
Glad to be here. Happy to chat builds, materials, and safe DIY notes — not dropping a sales pitch every post.

Nice to meet you. I’m Tinker D, I started self bondage back in 1998 when WebTV first came out.
Something about this makes me wishing I had the same skills as you.
Yea, I do want one of these. But I’m way out on the west coast of the U.S.

Nice! Your multi position chair on your website looks quite nice as well!
Building an adjustable frame: hardware choices that survive real load - nannanli - 28 Oct 2026
I build steel and oak frames in a small workshop, and most of the failures I get asked to repair are not the frame itself, they are the hardware. Notes from the bench, in case they help someone planning a build.
Anchor points. An 8 mm bolt through a 2 mm wall tube will oval the hole under load. Weld a 5 mm doubler plate where the bolt passes and the same bolt lasts. If you cannot weld, use a through-bolt with a wide washer on both sides, never a self-tapping screw.
Pins and adjustment. A 10 mm pin in a 10.5 mm hole sounds fine until it is loaded from one side. Go 10 mm pin in a 10.1 mm reamed hole, and put the load on the pin in double shear, not single shear. If the frame adjusts in steps, drill the steps at 5 cm and add a second pin hole as a safety so a single pin cannot drop the bar.
Hinges. Cheap butt hinges have a thin leaf and pull out of hardwood in a season. Use a hinge with a 2.5 mm leaf and through-bolt it, or use a removable pin hinge so nothing is left under tension when stored.
Coating. Powder coat is not a rust barrier at a cut end or a drilled hole. Plug weld, or fill with wax after drilling, then coat. I have seen a frame rust from the inside out in 18 months in a humid room.
Floor contact. A frame that slides is a frame that fails. Rubber feet around 60 shore A, 5 mm thick, glued and screwed.
Load test. Before trusting anything, load it to twice what you expect, leave it an hour, then check every joint for a hairline crack in the coating. A cracked coating at a weld toe means the weld is moving.
Sizes I work with: width 60-120 cm, height 90-200 cm, 32 mm tube with 2.0 mm wall, 30 mm oak crossbars with hardwax oil.
Happy to answer build questions.
