Spreader bars come in a wide variety of sizes and designs and they are a handy toy. Their main objective is sexual exposure, but they can do other things as well, such as hobble. Steel spreader bars are your best choice, but if that is out of your financial range, wood will do nicely and “The Workshop” section holds easy instructions on how to make spreader bars yourself.

There are a few things to observe, when setting out to buy a spreader:

↔ If you can find one, buy a telescopic one. That will allow you to adjust the spreader to your needs and desires.

↔ Buy one with detachable cuffs, which will make it more versatile.

↔ If you only buy one, buy one that is not overly long. Something in the range of 60 centimeters/20inch will do nicely. Of course longer (hence wider legs) is appealing but a somewhat smaller size allows you to use it for more purposes (such as a standing bondage)

↔ There are different ones for knees. Make sure if you buy one the cuffs that come with it ar big enough to fit the leg ABOVE the knee.

↔ Bear in mind that spreader bars are not fit for suspension. They are only there to spread.

↔ If you have the option, buy a spreader with a detachable, telescopic T-bar, one that goes up and can hold one or more dildo’s in place.
