I know a lot of talented people in the kink scene that make their own toys. I'm not much of a do-it-yourselfer but I have some handmade toys that others have made for me but the rest of them are store bought.

So, do you make your toys or buy them?

There are some quite easy toys:
canes, whips and stuff.

I want to use molding silicone to create futuristic dildoes, vibrators and masturbators (ok, not that kinky)

I wish I had more talent to sew kinky lingerie

I've made several floggers, and I'd like to make more.

Soft flogger, restraints from leather and strapping, blindfolds, tickler, nipple clamps and a tantra sex chair with restraint eyes. Can restrain in just about any position and is still comfortable for sustained periods of time.

I've made a few improvised restraints, and I'll hopefully be making some more soon

Wwe usually buy them but Wwe also frequently "pervert" non-kinky objects. A favorite in Oour collection is a kitchen spatula in the shape of Mickey Mouse's hand, purchased from Disneyland, no less, which makes a wonderful paddle. A friend owns a much loved shoehorn from Ikea that is a favorite spanking toy of theirs.

I've made floggers before, but that's pretty much all I know how to make, most of my toys were bought though.

Oh, oh, this was fun.

My partner made a ton of stuff out of rope- floggers, dildos, gags, etc; We haven't any yet, as we use rope for other purposes LOL But I mean it's a cool idea.

I buy most all the toys I use, but a few simple things (like clothespin zippers), I "make" myself.

I've made quite a few, but I think my collection is about half and half at this point.

I've made a few small things: a small leather flogger, beaded chain tickler, spreader bar, and modified our sex swing.

We've been making some rope, and it's nice to be able to get the color, ply, thickness, and material that W/we want to play with

So far, my partner and I have bought all our toys, though I did recently see a how-to on making floggers that I want to test :p

Bought so far. Will make some when I have more time at home.

I have a decent amount of 'this can be used as...' toys. Not necessarily made, but functional.

I doctor up some things so they can be better used as BDSM toys.

For instance, Target has beer paddles currently that I bought a couple of to sand down a tiny bit, stain and decorate

I either buy them, or repurpose normal items like the detachable strap of my purse. One time I did try to make a collar out of an old belt, but I failed miserably
