Just curious: Has anyone tried using one of these Iron Gym things as a temporary attachment point for wrist restraints? (http://www.buyirongym.com/default.asp?tcode=asp3&bhcp=1)

It's a huge turn-on when I can whip my submissive lady in a standing position with her arms at least slightly above her head. I'm thinking one of these might be the ticket. Comments? Suggestions?

Just from the video, it's clear that to stay up, this device requires a significant, constant load. Without someone's weight continually pulling down on it, it will fall down. Not suitable for the purpose you describe.

There's a different type of chin up bar that uses two brackets screwed to opposite sides of the doorway and is expanded between them. I've used a pair of those, one high, one low.

It looks like it would probably work with a bit of modification to suit your purposes....but....there is always a but isn't there....here is my suggestion.

Tie an overhand knot in a short length of rope ( 2 feet or less depending on the height of your door) lay the rope over the top of the open door so that the knot is on one side and the loop is on the other. Close the door, trapping the knot on the opposite side. Use the loop as an attachment point for your sub. A single rope works great for arms straight overhead. If you want her arms stretched out use a second rope and adjust the spacing accordingly.

Thanks, Domino. We've done something similar a couple times with the desired effect. I'm hoping to find something that would let be tied in the *open* doorway, so she would have more freedom to move under the flogger.

It may not fall down right away, but after a bit of back-and-forth wiggling it's definitely gonna land on her head.

If you have a wide enough doorway for it, the closet bar brackets are going to be your best bet- they screw into the door frame, and are shaped like a circle with the top cut out. Drop a sturdy oak closet bar, or length of metal pipe into it, and you've got a tie point (NOT a suspension point), or if friends ask, a bracket for a chin-up bar. Screw a couple of eyebolts into the bar you use, and you can keep her arms spread. Add another eyebolt, and you have a point to tie off nipple clamps, nose hook, etc. Cheap and versatile.
