I'm going to go ahead and start posting the instructions in bold with photos of each step for those who are here so that I don't run over an hour. I want to have time for the discussion portion of this before the end of the meeting at 9.

Hey yall! I'm here! I didn't get any of the supplies b/c of lack of funds/transportation/t ime, but I also learn better if I absorb stuff like this first and refer back to it later as I attempt to do it, so it works out just fine for me Hope everyone's having a great evening and all that jazz!

My hubby made a flogger with the really long thin zip-ties...Ouch. Very effective!

STEP ONE: We're going to start with making the falls. First, measure out how long you want your falls to be. A good length is between 18 to 22" so that the flogger isn't too short when in use. I used a guide strip of duct tape so that I didn't have to keep using a ruler and it proved to be a bit easier. Decide how many falls you want your flogger to have. For a flogger that is heavier and "thuddy," I'd suggest about twenty to thirty falls. If you want a light flogger, ten to fifteen falls should do.

What are you wrapping in the duct tape?

Looks good so far. So if we want our falls to be 20", we measure exactly only 20"? Not 40" expecting to wrap it in half.

STEP TWO: Once you've measured out the tape for the flogger fall, measuring one piece of tape at a time to avoid the stray pieces getting stuck to anything, take the piece of tape and lay it flat with the sticky side up. Slowly, and carefully, fold over half of the piece of tape. Make sure you fold the pieces of tape long ways otherwise your falls are not going to come out properly. Once you've folded one side of the tape to the middle of the sticky portion, fold the other side of the tape over to complete the fall. Repeat this process for each fall. It's a bit tricky to get the falls perfectly straight, so don't worry if they're a bit crooked.

This seems like a very interesting project.

The falls are made out of individual pieces of folded duct tape. The flogger handle is the only thing that's going to end up being wrapped in duct tape.

Ok, so the duct tape was just resting on something else then, got it, lol.

Measure at 20, or 21 for a bit of extra length in case the other falls aren't measured exactly at 20". Since you're folding the pieces long ways, you won't have to double the measurements.

I used a piece of tape on a poster board as a guide since I craft in my bed

During this lull I want to ask how many of you use floggers or are curious about using them? If so, have you read up on any kind of safety measures to take when using them?
