Re: Thoughts on storage of TPE dolls
The hook you are using is a "Swag lamp" hook, which is designed to hold up a lightweight lamp.Too much fun wrote:So like I said this isn't a pretty solution and it's not my permanent one but it was cheaper that what they are selling. I was in a hurry so I kinda slapped this together. I'm going to try finding something more permanent.
They are made of pot metal, the cheapest metal available, which has a crystalline makeup.
Easily shattered, easily broken, and definitely NOT designed to hold the weight you are using it to hold.
If there is NO stress on the hook, it doesn't sway, move, or get stressed at all, you might be OK.
One little earthquake tremor and you will find your doll on the floor.

Absolutely right. that hook is good for maybe 5~10lbs safely.Greyling wrote:The hook you are using is a "Swag lamp" hook, which is designed to hold up a lightweight lamp.Too much fun wrote:So like I said this isn't a pretty solution and it's not my permanent one but it was cheaper that what they are selling.

Pot metal parts break on.. Uh, Just about everything it is used on. And they snap not bend, with no warning of failure. Pot metal is like a very hard and brittle plastic in strength.

Re: Thoughts on storage of TPE dolls
When used properly for storage ONLY, (meaning the doll isn't attempted to be 'used', swung around, etc..while suspended) and the doll is kept in a stationary position with arms and legs straight downward as instructed— we think you'll have a terrific experience safely storing your doll without any issues whatsoever. We've truly found this kit to be absolutely invaluable in keeping our dolls safely and conveniently stored and we absolutely LOVE IT.
If you want to read more about it, there is a FAQ's page on the storage system here > http://www.reallovesexdolls.com/faqs-fo ... nsion-kit/

Re: Thoughts on storage of TPE dolls
Now THAT looks like a good solution. Remember when it comes to you loved one, Nothing beats overkill!Too much fun wrote:Thanks for all the input. I knew when I put it all together that it was not anywhere close to the best set up and it was only temporary. I actually only used it for a couple days and it did the job of storing it out of sight while I found the items needed. I don't recommend it at all to anyone. It did work for me but I was taking a risk and it worried me constantly. For the record the hook I was using was rated for 100lbs. I have upgraded the setup since. I would have wanted to use the hanging system from reallovesexdolls it looks very good and probably easyer to use than what I have but I can't pay that price. The carabiniers that I'm useing are rated at 260lbs and the eyebolts are rated at 3,747lbs the chain is going to work Great and the head is so light I'm just keeping it on the rope.
I believe carabiniers may be 'human rated' meaning its rated for 260lbs load but will break at 1040lbs (4x overrating) so its also wonderful overkill for your doll.

It's awesome having a closet just for the doll. I wouldn't have it any other way

That's what I wan't to get. Its 500 USD. Looks like tons of storage space. I went to ikea and took a look at it. I would add boards and make it lockable. Would be a full proof solution, and put a deadbolt in your room's door if you want that.
I think you want more storage space, you can add more wood on the bottom to lift it. You would only need to paint it black or white.
I have got to get me one of these!!!

Re: Thoughts on storage of TPE dolls
It's crazy, you pull this belt, and it shoots up the matress. My matress is really heavy. It's a thick tempurpedic.
When the bed is down, its like nothing down there exist.
Thinking of adding some mods to the bed. Some sheets just in case if matress is lifted, lock, and perhaps some hinges to screw down the bed form the inside. I mean, if you add all that, its pretty full proof not to have someone find what your hiding it if its a concern of yours.
With that being said. You can own multiple lifesize dolls.
I'll take pictures and add more tomorrow.

Ikea MALM Storage Bed, Image
The word "Malm" made no sense to me, as it looks kinda made up, which I assume it is just like most of the Ikea line of products,
do they speak a different language than the rest of us?
Here it is in a picture, it does look like it has a lot of storage under it.
