Serving Stocks -- locking stocks worn behind the small of the back (allowing for the wearer to hold a serving tray)

These have probably already been invented somewhere under another name, but this is my take on Serving Stocks. They’re worn behind the back, with the elbows through each hoop. This traps the wearer and limits the use of their arms, but still leaves their hands free to (awkwardly) do tasks like tidy up, or hold a serving tray (hence the name). (The tray works even better if you level it by adding the cheap y-chain nipple clamps, attach two of them to the sub and run the last strand up through their collar and back down to the front of the tray.)

The stocks also ‘improve’ their posture, forcing them to arch their back slightly, leading to more of a chest-thrust-forward-butt-thrust-back sort of pose, especially when combined with heels.

It works by holding the arms bent, with a locking bar against the inside of the elbows. The arms can’t be withdrawn without straightening them, and the wearer can’t do that with the lock bar in place.

I want to note upfront that this design is the result of one major constraint: I didn’t have the capability to shape or weld metal at the time, but could do woodworking. If I had been welding, I’d have used a hinged design more like this.

But without metal, I was left trying to make a strong, secure design while using wood as the most adjustable medium. I’d also wanted something minimalist/modern, shaped roughly like the final product, and which looked like metal.So for this prototype, I settled on two hoops carved from scraps of a 2x12, with a solid rod run though each, connecting them behind the wearer’s back.

I eventually decided on a piece of threaded rod covered in segments of plastic tube for the locking bar. This allowed for it to be locked together with simple nuts (which she couldn’t reach to unscrew) and the plastic tube in the middle keeps the two hoops from sliding, while the sorter lengths protect the wearer’s arms from rub burns as the threaded rod is slid in place or removed. The two smaller tubes are the biggest weak point of the design: each is cut to fit in the crook of each elbow and must be lined up with the rod as you run it through the holes in the hoops, and they’re annoying to get just right, and pose a pinch risk at that point (although not once it’s all put together).

I cut the wood into hoops using a bandsaw, drill, and jigsaw, then shaped it down to something more ergonomic using a belt sander and knife.Then I measured and cut the threaded rod, measured and cut the plastic tubes to fit, did a test wearing.

Then I spray painted everything but the threaded rod silver, and then coated it all in urethane. The urethane reduced the ‘metalic-ness’ of the silver paint, but it was worth it for the wearability. The spraypaint on its own rubbed off very easily, and left silver dust on everything it touched.

I’m pleased with this version; it’s been worn at least ten times without any issues besides the hassle setting it up. I may create a more ‘final’ metal version at some point, along the lines of the schematic at the bottom of the imgur post, but this one is quite secure.
