cunningminx was reviewing some of their products. She was sent a Clone-A-Willy kit, which is a mold-making kit that allows one to make an exact vibrating replica of one's own penis. At the time, cunningminx was not interested in the product (and I forget the reason why), but during a conversation with her over dinner one night, the subject was brought up and I mentioned how I have always wanted to try it.
In fact, I always wanted to have a Clone-A-Willy party, where I could purchase the mold-making materials in bulk and pass along the savings to my friends. A private room could be made available for those who wish to make the mold without an audience, but at the end, everyone could leave with copies of the penii they so desired.
But party aside, I have always had a fascination with life-like replicas, particularly of people I know personally. So when I mentioned how much I always wanted to try the kit,cunningminx said she'd send the kit to me so I could review it for her.
Now, I didn't really expect it to happen - after all, there are so many more important things than forcunningminx to remember to send me the kit. But one day, I got home to find a package waiting for me. And, lo and behold, it was the Clone-A-Willy kit from cunningminx!
I could see that the latex jar inside had ruptured during transit, because there was a little bit of flesh-colored liquid floating around just inside of the sealed outer package, but I thought I'd hold onto it for a while, just in case. I didn't have a willing & available partner at the time, but I had hopes that one would present itself soon. I figuredtacit would probably be "up" for it, but since we're so long-distance, there just never seems to be enough time to do all the things we say we're going to do to, uh, I mean with each other when we get together.
So, a few months later, the subject just happens to come up again in conversation (amazing how often making copies of penises comes up in conversation with me!), this time with my sweetie,datan0de. I casually mention that I happen to have a kit that i haven't used, and he enthusiastically volunteers to be my test subject.
So we schedule a day when we happen to already be getting together and I bring my kit over to his house. Unfortunately, though, when I opened the kit up, it was quite clear that there just wasn't enough latex left after the leak to make a clone, and the included vibrator's electronic components got compromised too, so that didn't work either.
Disappointed,datan0de quickly suggested a stop at Fairvilla on the way home from the party we were attending that night. I was quite pleasantly surprised at how eager datan0de seemed to assist me on my product review project. Much later that night, we drove into Orlando and all the way across town only to arrive at Fairvilla 15 minutes after they closed.
Thwarted again!
So we went back to my place, vowing to return in the "morning". Later the next afternoon, we crawled out of bed and headed back towards Fairvilla, where we picked out 2 kits and another little surprise for me.
Back at my place we began the cloning experiment.
First thing, we opened the package and read the instructions. They were simple enough, but required some pretty slick timing. It also required a couple of additional materials, like a mixing bowl and spoon, and a measuring cup with water. First, we had to measure the plastic tube that the kit comes in to the proper length to fitdatan0de's penis, and then cut it to size (adding gaff tape - although the instructions say duct tape of course because who else but me would have gaff tape - to the cut edge of the tube for safety).
Then, I ran to the bathroom (the closest faucet to the room we were in) and got the water going at exactly 98 degrees, as per the instructions and the handy little enclosed thermometer. I measured out the correct amount and rushed back into the room.
We poured the water into the bowl, then added the mold powder. We had 2 minutes to get it mixed to the right consistency. We also had to keepdatan0de as hard and big as possible while doing all this measuring and mixing (that was the fun part). Then I had to pour the mold mix into the tube and get datan0de's penis into the goopy gel before it solidified.
datan0de's tweet while in the mold: OMG. Like fucking Elmer's glue! #TMI
Next,datan0de had to stay hard inside the tube full of mixing gel for 2 minutes. I delightedly provided assistance in this endeavor. The gel solidified quite rapidly, as I could tell by the texture of the goop that overflowed from the tube. Care needs to be taken at this point to not allow the penis to hit the side of the tube when making the mold. It won't prevent the clone from being made, but it will make a flattened part on the clone. If the penis does touch the side of the mold tube, quickly rotate the tube until it's no longer touching. This must be done right away, though, because the gel will set too hard to rotate within only a few seconds.
Thendatan0de had the distinct sensation of removing himself from the mold. He says it wasn't painful, but it is a singularly unique experience. Some of the gel did get stuck to his hair, which neither of us thought to shave off first, but he says the mold still pulled away without significant discomfort. However, we both recommend shaving if anyone else wants to try this. And, although I should have known better with my own experience with latex and mold-making, I now recommend to the reader the added suggestion of using vasoline or petroleum jelly to help prevent the mold from sticking to the skin.
Sodatan0de finally removed his penis from the mold. The instructions then said to let it sit for approximately 2 hours to firm up, but not to wait longer than that, since the mold material will dry out.
So, we began my latex boots project in the interim.
Finally, 2 hours later, I cut an X in a square piece of cardboard and inserted the long vibrator into the X, making a cardboard guard at the base of the vibrator to protect the battery compartment from the latex.datan0de mixed the two-part rubber solution and poured it into the mold, then inserted the vibrator into the mix. I had him hold the tube over one of my disposable mini paint pans, which turned out to be a good idea since some of the latex overflowed and ran down the outside of the tube, even though he had stopped pouring the rubber when it reached about an inch below the top, as per the instructions.
Next, we waited 24 hours for it to set.
Finally, I got to pull the penis out of the mold. It took a little bit of effort because I was hoping to save the mold for another use, but it did not survive the removal process. First I had to cut the plastic tube in order to get the mold out. Then, in the process of tugging on the penis, the mold itself split. But the penis was at last revealed in all it's penile glory.
I then spent some time trimming the excess latex with a craft knife and brushing off little pockets of mold material that stuck to the penis. I'm a little disturbed by how much enjoyment I took at digging into the flesh with a sharp knife and how relaxing it was. But soon, the penis was clean and ready to use.
Although we were a bit disappointed to find out that it would take 24 hours anddatan0de would not be at my house when it was ready to be opened, I am extremely pleased with the final result.
The amount of detail in the penis is just amazing. The texture of datan0de's skin translated onto the rubber, but the sensation of the rubber isn't *quite* like skin. Anyone who's ever touched a latex dildo should know what I'm talking about. But the bumps and veins and general roughness and the smooth parts are as accurate as if I was holding his original penis in my hands. There's even a very clearly defined hole at the tip. It's very firm, and the vibration is nice and strong through the rubber.
It was really hard to see if the vibrator was in straight, because of the cardboard guard, and it turned out that it did not get put in quite straight. There is a spot near the head where you can clearly see the white vibrator through the rubber as it gets closer to the surface, but the dildo works just fine.
I think I will use some of the excess rubber from the second kitdatan0de bought (when he makes the second copy for someone else) to brush over that spot, just to make it a little thicker, although I expect that will change the texture and shape slightly to be a little less accurate.
The clone-making experience was a great deal of fun and the finished product came out fantastic. I got to holddatan0de's cock in my hands while he was out to dinner with his wife 100 miles away.
I then got to try out the penis clone, but, as per request, I waited untildatan0de got back home so he could listen in during the first test run. Although penetration toys can be fun, they don't really bring me to orgasm - I'm much too clitorally-centered for that. But when you really want to have your sweetie fuck you and he can't, for whatever reason, let me just say that having an exact vibrating replica of his penis handy is a damn fine runner-up!
And how cool is it to say during phone sex "I'm putting your cock inside me right now" ... and mean it?
Hopefully next up ... Clone-A-Pussy for a copy of myself, clones of my other sweeites, and a Clone-A-Willy party for my friends! They also sell a glow-in-the-dark kit, a Lover's Kit (both Willy & Pussy kits at a discount), and a Chocolate Clone-A-Willy kit. The girl's mold claims to be reusable and safe to use as a Jello Mold!

I'm filing this under "Links NOT to Send to my Mom"!
Date: 8/11/09 02:31 pm (UTC)From:You may be a little disturbed by it, but I'm a lot disturbed by it! ;-) Actually, seeing a "dismembered" replica of my penis is a bit unsettling.
Seriously though, everything about this process (and really, the entire day) was a joy, and I can't deny that having so much "attention" was a real treat. I'm clearly not opposed to objectification, particularly for such a fun project that will hopefully bring you pleasure for years to come.
A couple of observations from the other end of the mold:
* While shaving certainly would have facilitated things some, it's by no means a necessity. It really wasn't more than a minor inconvenience to liberate any trapped pubic hair, and when doing this again I likely won't bother shaving unless there's some other reason to do so as well.
* Much like how getting the vibrator lined up was tricky, getting my penis centered in the mold was tricky given the tight time constraints. I did end up touching the edge of the cylinder slightly, and based on the photos you sent me it did produce a (barely noticeable) inaccuracy along the right edge of the head.
* It's not actually necessary to remain erect during the entire molding process. However, having a "lab partner" who's willing to help anyway certainly doesn't hurt!
* The most unrealistic aspect of it is the uniformity of color. I'd be curious to know if/how the color can be modified, either to produce swirls, a marble pattern, or just a color gradient. Glow in the dark is great, but if that could be combined with blue to produce a "Dr. Manhattan effect" it would be total win! :-)
* It's worth saying again: This was a hell of a lot of fun, and I fully endorse the idea of a Clone-a-Willy party! Just be sure to have lots of newspaper or plastic sheeting to lay down on the floor.
Thanks for making my penis the focus of an LJ post. You have no idea how much this amuses me. :-D (Actually, you probably do.)

Date: 8/11/09 05:38 pm (UTC)From:...Alas, the idea of dismembered peniil happens to be one of the few things that really squicks me. To the point that I don't at all like 'realistic'/fleshtoned dildos---I'm fine if they are black, blue, or ideally purple. A fleshtoned copy of a male lover's penis would probably traumatize me. Unless they make the latex in purple...?
Oddly enough, I have a very realistic canine dildo that doesn't trigger my squickage at all, and feels particularly right and exciting when worn in conjunction with my leather jackal mask. (Ah, furries). I guess as a dog, I am just a little bit transgendered.
Sounds like you had a good time in the process of making this thing, though.

Date: 8/11/09 10:12 pm (UTC)From:It's not a deal-breaker by any means, but for someone who had never made a latex mold before, having the kit specifically for this purpose was helpful.
I was not so confident that I would be able to estimate the correct amounts or that I would choose the correct materials. Now that I've done it, though, I would feel a little more confident at purchasing all the supplies individually (which is what I would need to do for the party in order to get the bulk pricing) and mixing it up on my own.
So, from *that* standpoint, making it unrealistic colors is possible.
They *do* have a Chocolate Clone-A-Willy, and that might help you :-) Unfortunately, I don't suspect that it lasts too terribly long, or that it can be "used" appropriately ;-)
