About

I am a woodworker located in central Ohio.  I design and make distinctive lightweight impact toys for sale to the BDSM community.

I take great care in selecting fine domestic hardwoods like birch, maple and walnut, as well as lovely exotic woods including padauk, ebony, bloodwood and purpleheart.  Quite a bit of my domestic wood is vintage, coming from another local woodworker’s estate.  I am also very fond of using other woodworker’s cut-off material.

All of my work is hand made, and finished to a very high standard with tung oil and a high quality crystalline wax.

Over the last couple of years I have also started teaching a couple of classes in photography, and also The Basics of Safe Impact Play.  The safe impact class focuses primarily on paddles and other hard impact items.

Custom orders are always welcome.  Please contact me directly through my email address,  mmalaprop@aol.com.
