DIY Dildos - Making your own

I read somewhere here about someone making a dildo using a paper towel cardboard tube, a large condom and some silicon. I am going to try that with a tube of kitchen and bath caulking. If it works out I have an idea for a more rigid one. I am going to insert an industrial strength twist tie into the condom before the caulking sets up. You can buy these at any hardware store. The tie should make the dildo bendable. I might even try to make one with PL400 lumber glue. This one should be very rigid when it sets up. As for a butt plug I was thinking of put either caulking or silicon into one of those Kong dog toys, then cut the toy away after the caulking sets up. If any of these ideas work out I will post some pics.

Good luck. You are going to need it.

Dildos are so inexpensive you should just buy them.

The silicone to fill a paper towel tube is going to cost more than a dildo.

I would do some serious research before using silicone caulk for a dildo. There is a big difference between medical grade silicone, and the commercial grades. In addition, in manufacturing the silicone caulk, there may be other ingredients added to the silicone that are not body friendly, and may cause health issues if they leech out. I have no experience or authority in this, but just putting it out there as a word of caution. I had actually thought of using the stuff myself to make a colon snake, but after reading the ingredients on a caulk tube, decided to wait and do some more in depth research.

I'm totally in agreement with Switchablesusie ....they are inexpensive so why bother & really the time wasted could be better spent enjoying.

While what Aussie and Susie say is true, it gives some people great satisfaction to look at a nozzle or dildo or whatever and know that they made it themselves, it is unique, and that sort of thing.

I make my own dildos and butt plugs using silicone.

You have to use 100% pure silicone which is food safe, this should be available from most hardware stores as its also used in fish tanks.

Once you have the silicone don't bother trying to mould it with a mould as the mould seals the silicone from the air and it will take months to set.

This had me stumped for years as it always took too long to set so I used many other materials instead such as EVA closed cell foam, latex over all sorts of things, vegetables etc.

Eventually I figured out the secret to making your own dildos, and here it is:

You need to catalyse the silicone, this means starting the chemical reaction to make the silicone harden.

This catalyzation process is normally set off by the air but you can accelerate it and have a dildo in less than 1/2 an hour!

This is what you will need:

1) 100% Silicone

2) water

3) dish-soap any brand should work

4) large bowl

5) caulking gun

Make a catalyzing bath.

I use about 120g/4oz of soap in 2L of water.

The Glycerine in the soap acts as a catalyzer and accelerates it setting.

Then unload the required amount of silicone from the tube using your caulking gun directly into the water, the water will prevent it sticking to the bowl and your hands.

This is good as the next step is to knead it with your hands to get as much of the silicone in contact with the soapy water.

After 5 mins or so of kneading you will notice the silicone become less knead-able, at this point you need to start moulding your desired dildo/buttplug shape.

The soapy water acts as a lubricant so its very easy to mould into a smooth shape which can be easily introduced to the desired area.

I would recommend making a base that not only allows you to get a good grip when its lubed up but also once it has set enough you can stand it on the base while it fully sets.

While the silicone sets in under half an hour I generally leave it for a day or two to fully catalyze as when first set it has a very strong smell.

Give it a good wash, lube up then enjoy.

Damn, it sounds like such a great idea, but the ingredients could definitely be a problem. Does anyone have a little lathe? I know going to a machinist would be embarrassing, but small hobby lathes are cheap, maybe on craigslist there could be a special deal. I think turning some stainless steel or aluminium and anodizing it. You could use wood too, taking precautions about wood by using a condom. There are plastics that could be turned on a lathe too. Making ridges would be fun making all different ones to experiment with.

Is there anyone out there that is doing this on a hobby level. I think I have seen some professional ones for sale, polished and expensive. I think the weight would be a lot of fun to play with too.

Hbcman, thank you for your detailed recipe for working with silicone! Is there a brand of silicone you would recommend to use? I have not seen a 100% pure food safe silicone in hardware stores, so I'm really looking forward for your recommendation - so maybe I can order it online. Thank you again!

Hbcman, that was very informative. i will definately be making some silicone toys too. I never knew about the catalyzation thing. I'd love to see some pics of your handy work. I will send you some pics when i've created a few toys. thanks

I have uploaded a photo of my DIY dildo and Butt plug here: http://www.zity.biz/gallery/image/115110

It also has the Silicone I use, it does not say 100% silicone on it but if you can use it on fish tanks it has to be very inert once cured as many tropical fish are very sensitive to anything that may leech from the silicone. I have had many hours of fun with no side effects at all and have not used a condom on these either.

The surface is very smooth although you can see not as perfectly shaped as a bought one but does the job.

The plug is 50mm (almost 2"), the Dildo is 45mm at the widest part of the head and 55mm at the base which I cant actually get to 😃

That is a very nice looking dildo. i'm going to be making a dildo for myself pretty soon. Just need some time, things are so busy here always. I uploaded 3 new videos of myself with dildos in my ass.

please check out all my videos.

Did you ever got it fully inserted? I'm looking for a nice long not to thick dildo myself ... any recommendations?

Or would it be possible to make one that is like 25 inches long with the silicone technic?

Gizzmo: almost got the dildo all in its about 14" long, the last 2" just wont go yet.

You could make a dildo 25" long you would need a long water trough I guess as until the silicone starts to harden you couldnt pull it right out of the water.

I guess you could make a long narrow bath with cardboard and line it with a rubbish bag. Sounds like a fun project.

So, silicone is cool stuff and a while back I did a ton of research about it, but never made a toy because I live in a condo and I don't have room for all that. If you are going to try to pour a mold with silicone, you want to get silicone that is platinum based / addition cure. You can get this from prop-making places like Smooth-On. It is not as dependent on air to cure, so its a better choice for large/deep pours. There are billions of youtube videos on how to do this, making prop knives and whatnot.

Pretty much carve a model of what you want in wax or whatever, build an enclosure around it with plexiglass, spray everything with release agent, pour your silicone to make the mold. Once it is cured, take the enclosure apart, cut the silicone carefully with a razor to get the model out. Build a support for the mold, spray release agent in the mold, pour silicone in the mold, and wait for that to cure. Once that is done, pull the support apart, and peel the mold off to reveal your amazing new food grade silicone toy.

It is pretty involved, but not so difficult. You do need a vacuum chamber to get all the air bubbles out of your mixed silicone or it will have defects wherever the bubbles were. The up side of all this effort is you get to keep the mold, so you can make a perfect copy of your toy if you ever need another or you want to give one as a gift. If you are going to make a very large you, you may need to pour it in layers ,

I would advise against any sort of wire inclusion, it may break, or it may perforate the silicone and whatever orifice you are sticking your toy in. If you really want some way to pose your toy, try out something like a flexible lubricant nozzle (http://www.grainger.com/product/LOC-LINE-Hose-Kit-3P816), seems safer to me. In reality, if you shape your toy right, it should be pretty well self guiding.

Overall, making safe, high quality silicone toys is an expensive and time consuming proposition. This is why good quality silicone toys cost as much as they do, and why there are so few companies in the marketplace that make toys like these. You could easily buy 2 or 3 toys for the price of simply tooling up to be able to make toys as good as the ones you can buy, and the silicone itself is fairly costly. Remember that silicone sticks to everything, so spray release agent everywhere or you will regret it. Also make sure you understand the Shore A hardness scale before you select the product you will use.

I made my first dildo from molding silicon

Mmmh. I would personally be wary of using inside the body (or with lasting skin contact) any chemical that is not medical-grade. Generally speaking, standards for medical-grade products (or, to a lesser extent, products allowed for processing or storing food) are stricter than for others, for good reason: traces of dangerous chemicals are to be lower, some additives are prohibited, etc.

Some years ago some French manufacturer of breast implants was prosecuted for using general-purpose silicone instead of medical-grade silicone, apparently to cut costs (and for running a deceiving scheme, hiding the wrong silicone away when inspectors came in).

Touching base here again to see if anyone has made anything or tried the suggestions.

Hi, I found this page through Google. I have read a lot into making silicone toys and it is very expensive. If you just want a few toys, it makes more sense financially speaking to just buy them, even though they are more expensive than most other materials. I was keen to make things that aren't on offer and since I enjoy crafting things, I decided to invest time and money into getting the right materials. The only thing I am still in the process of buying is a vacuum chamber, even though I bought a silicone type which supposedly doesn't need degassing.

I wouldn't use silicone caulk you get at a hardware store. A regular sized dildo made from silicone can be bought on Etsy for around £25-30 which isn't that much of an investment. You'll then get something made for the purpose and using suitable material. It's worth it. Why would you spend perhaps half (or more) of that money on getting caulk and some other materials when you likely get something that isn't suitable for the purpose; spending a few Pounds more will get you a good product.

Like many of you I have been experimenting with different ways of making dildos for many years. Well mostly I have tried whatever other people have tried online and for the most part the results have been mediocre at best.

Well the other night I struck on this idea use balloons filled not with water or air but rather with a solid fill of some type maybe even pebbles or marbles or even Ball bearings, I used polyester fill batting like used to stuff pillows for my stuffing to make a relatively soft dildo. And the type of balloon I used was those long relatively skinny ones used by entertainers to make animal figures for kids.

You can use just one balloon but for security I think you will want to nest at least two maybe even three or four. Note that the firmness of the result is partially determined by number of balloon layers. Also the firmness is determined partially by whether or not you blow up and stretch the balloons before you nest them.

Once you have your nested balloons take a pair of blunt tip medical forceps and take small "bites" of polyester pillow filling like what is often placed into pillows. Keep stuffing in these bits of poly fill i to the balloon until it is filled to the ultimate total volume you think you want it to be. Then tie off the ends and redistribute the stuffing to give the dildo the shape diameter length etc. That you want it to have.

At this point if you want just apply lube and go at it...

Aside (Note that this next step is a bit speculative, I have not tried it yet, so it might not work just exactly as I say it will but even so, I sure it can be made to work by wrapping the dildo with vinyl tape or something...)

Anyhow the idea is to cover the prototype dildo with "Plastigrip" tool handle covering liquid. You can just dip if into the can if the dildo is small enough or spoon it over the suspended dildo if it is too wide or long to place it in the can.

After it has set long enough to be completely cured the stuffed balloon dildo will be completely sealed and ready for permanent use.

Now isn't this just the most amazing idea for your crafty spouse to try out making hand crafted and personalized dildos for each of your friends and know that the finished product will look and feel better than any of those expensive impersonal store bought dildos!

I am all for making something at home that is not commercially available but that appears complicated and very time consuming and I sincerely doubt the resulting product will look and feel anything like a real dick or dildo.

I'll just go out and buy one if I want another dildo.

A friend told me that he took an fashioned bike tube, cut off 12' or so, turned it inside out and tied one end with a piece of fishing line. Then he turned it right side out and fill it with silicone. And once it dried he had a homemade dildoe. He told me he then tool a small life and cut off the seam line. He made several different sizes. I thought how ingenious

Anyone knows if I can use those silicone that came in tubes to do a toy?

Thank You

If the silicone is not toxic, you can use it, but I would advice you even if it says it's not toxic, make your toy of it but put consom on the top anyway. That will save you a lot of troubles and worries over your head if it's good or not for your body.

I tried it years ago. The only problem I had was that it took about 3 weeks for the caulking to dry. I had just used a gun, and filled up a condom, and tied it. The next morning it was squishy, but holding it's shape, so I stripped off the condom, so it would dry. It came out about 2" dia. and 9" long. It had one side kinda flat from lying on my desk.

Yup, it worked. i could also go to my toy shop and buy a factory made dildo that was ready to go right out of the packaging.

I make my own custom plugs on a wood lathe. Turning bowls is a serious hobby and plugs are an easy project. I can make them sized for whatever effect I want. Some are drilled for use as a nozzle. My latest

is about 8 inches insertable length. It features a large flat disk so it wont go all the way in. The rectum neck is about 1/2 inch so I get nice closure. About 2 inches up is a 2x3 inch egg shaped ball that presses my prostate nicely. Another 1/2 stem about 2 inches long, ends with another egg ball. The two eggs are ribbed for a little more stimulation. The second egg goes into the valve holding it open. It gives fantastic feelings while sitting firmly on it and rocking. Pressing the Hitatchi against the plug end transmits the vibration directly to the prostate and valve. My plugs are a hardwood, sanded and varnished to a glass like finish. I use a finish that is safe for food bowls. Turning a new plug only takes a couple hours and I am aroused the whole time in anticipation of trying it out. I have a nice assortment of plugs and dildos that I made plus a nice collection of commercial toys.

There is only two “safe” silicones that can be used to construct a dildo & That is :

a) Food grade . . and . . b) Medical grade

Apart from those there is also Ballistics gel

Overall with the the cost of two tubes of silicone one can purchase say a Doc Johnson off Amazon
