A Ball Gag

   A very simple and popular bondage prop. All you need is a rubber ball and a dog collar. The ball should be 1.75" on average, but can be 2-2.25" for large mouths. You can often find these at SuperPetz or other pet supply place. The collar should be 20-22" long, but be sure that you get one with only one thickness down the length. Some nylon ones over 20" have a double thickness and you don't want that. You will need to bend the collar in half the long ways in step 12 and this is impossible with the double thick...
   Tools: I used a drill press, as I happen to have one, but a regular drill will work OK. You will also need a drill bit about 3/4 the wide of your dog collar, a vice and probably a needle-nose pliers.


   1. Here are the materials I used.    2. My tool setup    3. Decide where you want the hole to be. I chose to drill on the seem so that the logo on the ball would be straight when the gag was worn...

   4. Center the ball and clamp it down

   5. Start your drill and carefully lower it onto your mark. Move slowly until you break the skin of the ball. This will be a kind of hard step with a regular drill but don't lose patience.

   6. Continue to drill all the way through the ball.

   10. So put it back in the vice, bad hole side up...

   11. And run the drill slowly through it to clean up the hole.
   Remove the ball from the vice and prepare to thread it onto the collar.

   12. Bend the collar into a U shape so that it can fit through the hole. You want the U shape to be as shown so that the curve, instead of the edges will be against you lips and cheeks when you put on the gag...

   13. Force the creased end into your ball. You will need to twist to work it though, but if it is too tight, you may need to re-drill with a larger bit.

   14. You may need to use a pair of needle nose pliers to help you get the tip the rest of the way through

   15. You may need to keep creasing it as you pull it through to the half way point.
