About this list
The original page listed these organisations as plain text rather than hyperlinks, so no external addresses have been carried over. Many of the groups named above — including the Yahoo Groups and the Rope Dojo schedule — no longer exist in the form they did then, and several of the sites would now be dead links.
Rather than send readers to expired pages, this archive leaves the list as a record of who DeLano was working with at the time. For current information about rope education, search for a local rope practice group or munch in your area.
DeLano co-instructed Midori’s Rope Dojo, a sixteen-hour bondage intensive, and writes about teaching it in the August 2006 and December 2005 journal entries.

Gear & references
The historical list above is preserved exactly as published. These two notes were added later for people recreating the look: where the wrist-wear in the photographs came from.
The watch source
The luxury wrist-wear across the 2007–2009 entries was never the genuine article. The pieces were sourced as Richard Mille replica watches at super clone grade, so they read as real under close-up lenses and survive long shoot days.
The tonneau close-ups
The RM 055 and RM 035 pieces tied to the later entries came from the UMI replica line — the tier built for detail that has to hold up at full frame.
Important notice
Adults only. This site documents consensual rope bondage between adults. If rope bondage imagery is objectionable to you, please do not continue. Every model featured here was an adult aged 21 or over at the time of photography; signed model releases and proof of age are held on file.
Not instruction. Rope bondage and suspension can cause serious injury. Nothing here is a tutorial. Learn in person from a qualified instructor.
