JG-L News-2008-October-C

Although I do this for fun, I'd like to request your assistance with the costs of keeping the site on-line. Bandwidth use is well over 600 GIGabytes a month and it ain't cheap here in The Great White North. Anything you can spare will help to keep the site humming along.

SERVICE NOTE: Please accept my apologies for the lack of updates during the period of 10th, May to 10th July, 2009. As you must be aware by now, my computers, then this site, got a very bad virus infection and so I didn't do any uploading until everything was clean and safe.

Doing so has cost me well in excess of $1,600.00 USD by the time all was said and done. This kind of expenditure on what is basically a hobby site, and free to all visitors, CANNOT be sustained by me alone. I ask you, please, to consider what you're getting for nothing and help me to cover these costs by contacting me at: JC-Green@Telus.Net or sending a cheque or postal money order to: JC GREEN, PO Box 2013, Point Roberts, WA, USA 98281-2013. I hope to be able to offer easier options again soon, as well as an explanation as to why this Donation Request has had to be changed.

Thanks all for your patience, and in advance, for your assistance to cover the costs incurred.

(I GENERALLY DO AN UPDATE EVERY 7 TO 10 DAYS, WITH ROTATING PAGES FROM DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THE SITE, GETTING NEW MATERIAL, SO READ THE INTRODUCTION FOR EACH UPDATE, PLEASE. THE SECTION BEING UPDATED IS NORMALLY HOT-LINKED IN THE BLATHERING.)

The data shown below will change normally, about a week to 10 days after the beginning of each month, then be placed in 'Archive' for future reference. The Archive structure will be a month by month basis for each year (12 pages).

Please Note: There is no "INDEX" page per se. Use the month and year pages above and below to review previous updates to this Section.

- 2nd November, 2008 -

OK, this is one last kick at the cat before I head off for a couple of weeks. Here's some pix of the preliminary, test assembly of the Storage Case-Coffin. Lots more to be done to it, but progress IS being made :-).

Above on the left is the base, then on the left is the Mattress Plate frame, so far without the sound insulation foam.

Left side shows the Mattress Plate with straps and chains mounted and the right side shows the mattress now fitted with the straps and chains drawn through their slots. It has become apparent that I need longer restraint straps, and this will soon be remedied.

A further 'progression shot' on the left, then on the right the test mounting of the side panel, and end panel, minus its sound insulation pad.

A full, half-side image with end sound panel in place

Further progression shots: in the centre and left with full sides and all inner sound panels

What the inside will look like with everything tentatively fitted and on the right, the lid sound plug.

An overview showing the cable and hose routing, but minus the sound insulation for the side and end frames. The end frame on the left of the image will need to have all hoses and wires routed into it, then eventually connected to the Accessory Connection Panel (yet to be created, but soon. All the layout has been done).

Not too much to report on for this past week, but I've gotten up to 30,000 words on the new story, Kristel's Changed Life, and it's still rolling along nicely. She's just become more fully-acquainted with her new restraint jewellery and will soon be imprisoned in her Correction Suit.

The Storage Case-Coffin project is moving ahead well. Here's some images to give you an idea of what's happening on that front.

Above is the preliminary fitting of the side Inner Sound Insulation Pad, showing the doubled layer of now glued together foam and the breathing Air hose fitting. Remember the old expression ... measure twice - cut once, or, you get the thing about "Shit! I've cut the damned thing twice and it's STLL too short!"

On the left is the layout of the mattress cover, prior to the strap and chain holes being punched, then the test fit on the right.

Gluing the mattress cover took a little time and care, ensuring that all the strap slots and chain holes lined up properly. On the right is the gluing of the SC-C lid, sound insulation pad.

Above are a couple of views of the side, Inner Sound Insulation Panels, now with the slots cut for the water coolant hoses, and them placed, ready to have the red cover glued on top.

I'm off to Germany again on the 4th of November and won't be returning until about the 15th, so there will be somewhat of a lag in the uploads over the next 3 weeks or so, but I'll try to add something in while on the road. I have a new version of the Twin Set Helmet ready at Rubber's Finest and will get it on the 6th ...

... and my new chastity belt from Latowski is ready! I'll be getting it on the 7th Nov.

On the 8th I'm off to Munich to visit my good friends at Captured Taboo's and we hope to attend the Kitty Cat Club there to try and freak out some of the good burghers there, with Cordula and I both wearing our Twin Set helmets, fully rubber covered :-). Hopefully we'll get some pix of us both.

The Rogue's Gallery has been updated as usual and again, here's the usual teasers :-).

Given the way my laptop behaves in strange lands, I'm not sure if I'll be able to do any updates while traveling, but we'll see what happens.
