The Dowel

So as I mentioned, last weekend we were due to have a visitor, (great seeing him, but I immediately took advantage of the situation and I've been paying for it all week). We had both realized that it was not enough time to pick much less buy an actual cane, and realized that we had zero quiet instruments. Then Cal gets a "brilliant" idea in his head, which he neglects to tell me about, (he mentioned stopping by home depot, which or course I didn't think much of). When we get there, he wanders off and comes back with these mean looking sticks...he says they're dowels..they look like this:

They come in various sizes and various types of wood. We went with oak and...I don't remember the other type...Anyway the oak is working terribly well. And it cost maybe $2 all up. The unknown(by me) wood type broke during our practice "session" but the oak has lasted all week, and on the fourth day of my week long punishment for falling so far out of line this week, my ass is begining to bruise, and I'm having dreams about destroying the evil thing....


Great tester for those who are unsure if they want to delve into the cane or not. I've read a number of complaints from spankers that the cane does not give enough feedback, as in they can't sense the strength as much, but many come to love it after they master the art. Cal has come to appreciate it for its quiet demeanor and quick behavior modification. He hasn't been smacking me full strength, going more for quick steady smacks all over, concentrating mostly on the sit spot.
