I would consider it, especially from someone running a small company instead of just a hobbyist.

And that one is 100% true. She'll even redo from scratch any ones she messed up too badly at no charge to you.

Currently she has drips (which leave a veined texture) and dips (which makes a softer, smoother outside). I like the drips better. She also tried a "splatter" style dip on one of my customs that resulted in a water-like pattern flowing down the toy. It's awesome.


By the way, I just found out that Eden started carrying Whipspider: a homebrew company! Here's their Jellyfish on Eden link

I can't say that I definitely would or wouldn't, but I can say there is a bit of difference between what you would say homemade and handmade.

I can see maybe buying bondage toys like some people here are saying. Like whips.

Nope, I don't trust just anyone's craftsmanship and if something goes wrong with a toy it can cause real damage

For anything that's going to be inserted, definitely not; the safety concerns are pretty obvious on that one. For other types of toys (blindfolds, cuffs, and such), I'd at least consider it, but I'm more likely to stick to well-known and reputable companies for my toy needs.

I would consider it depending on the material like if I could fully sterilize it or not. If it wasn't something that I could indeed sterilize then no

If someone had a lathe and started churning out aluminum plugs and probes at a good price I'd definitely look into it.

I wouldn't buy one, but I would consider copying it.

I've reviewed toys from some Etsy shops before (Jollies, Ttamage, Knotty Wood Arts). All the ones I've tried have been fantastic and totally safe.

I would not buy a homemade toy just because of safety issues. I would be concerned about the quality of the toy and the materials that were used to make it.

I have not in the past, but I could certainly see myself possibly buying homemade leather goods or even a wooden paddle. Why not? Years ago, I made my own spreader bar as well as a small leather flogger, both for just a few dollars. These were two of our earliest BDSM toys. It proved to be Money well spent.

The little homemade shops are how all dildo companies get started. Tantus used to be one ... more
This pretty much sums up how I feel about it. I would definitely give consideration to a "homemade" product because that's how so many good brands start.

No. I think there are plenty of manufactured options

Most likely not but I guess I'd be open to it if it was a professional, high quality one.

Yeah, if it was made of quality materials and reasonably priced.
