Dream Bondage Device - The Punishment Box

Lady Grey left some interesting comments on my post about the Human Footrest restraints:

These comments jogged my memory a bit and reminded me a device that showed up in my dreams very early on in the lifestyle.  It scared me a bit then since it was quite extreme.  This device was the Punishment Box.

I can draw some sketches if people request that but at the same time I tend to enjoy the exercise of visualizing something based upon a textual description.  Everyone seems to come up with their own unique interpretation and that is often way more fun than spoiling it with a drawing.

The Punishment Box is a modular device meant to inflict punishment on a sub through bondage, isolation, discomfort, and sensory deprivation.  It is a rectangular box that consists of three pieces that are attached and locked together to completely enclose the sub.  The pieces are the base, and the top which is split into halves. 

In my dreams the box was usually used in addition to a gag, blindfold/hood, earplugs, and hands chained behind the back.


The base of the box is a rectangular wooden board.  The sub kneels on the wooden rectangle with small stocks built in the "foot end" that locks their ankles in place, holding them kneeling on the board.  At the "head end" of the board is an O ring that is locked to the collar, keeping them bent over with their head ~10" above the board. 

Their overall position is similar to someone being hog tied while on their knees and their upper body bent over forwards.

What really makes the Punishment Box uncomfortable is that the board isn't smooth.  It's covered in wooden knobs/rods coming out of the wood of varying thicknesses and length ranging from 1" to 12" long.  The ends of the rods are rounded points.  The majority of the rods are strategically placed for maximum discomfort, some in positions where the sub must kneel on the points, others that are meant to poke and prod various sensitive body parts, and a few others to force them to maintain an uncomfortable position (such as a rods directly below the scrotum and anus so any relaxing/sagging will gouge them). The remaining rods are meant to jab and prod if the sub tries to struggle or move about.

The top of the box is split into two halves.  Each half is symmetrical, encompassing one side wall, half of each end wall, and half of the top.  When placed together they can be locked to each other and to the base, forming a closed box.  Inside each half of the box top there are similar rods/knobs jutting out from the sides, front, back, and top performing the same function as the rods located on the base.  The reason the top is in two-halves is so that they can be placed on the base from the side (rather than coming from above) in order to get the rods into specific positions that would have stuck on body parts if it was a single piece.


Each half of the top has some extra features.  Some smaller doors on the sides and top can be opened to inflict additional punishment with pokes and prods from outside the box or for tickling, etc.  Similar doors exist on the front and back for access to the head, genitals, and buttocks. 

In the dreams I have had involving the Punishment Box, the sub was locked inside for up to 24 hours for disciplinary reasons, often with several keepers there to keep him awake and uncomfortable.  They would jab him in the ribs, scratch, sodomize, etc.  By the end of the punishment the sub was completely broken and obedient.

A few variants:
-O-Rings for attachment of the wrists in the upper back corners.
-An O-Ring for ankle/wrist attachment instead of the stocks at the foot end.
-Varying degrees of sharpness of the rods ranging from completely smooth/blunt to fairly sharp.
-Rods that were removable to give the discomfort possibilities a larger range (mild to extreme).
-A softer interior material to give some padding.
