Frequently Asked Questions
No splinters?
Ha ha, everyone has to ask. With super-fine sanding and five coats of
varnish, these dildos are as smooth as silk.
Will the dildos with a big base work in a strap-on
harness?
It depends. If you have a harness with an adjustable ring, yes. Standard
ring size for a harness is 1.75", and a lot of these big-base dildos
are smaller than that, so you would need a smaller or adjustable ring.
All the dildos with a big base have the diameter of the shaft listed,
and the diameter of the base.
Do you make custom dildos?
Yes - email me (info@hardwooddildos.com) the size
and shape you want, and I'll quote a price. In about a week I'll email
you pictures, and you can pay by Paypal/ credit card/ check. If you
decide you don't want it, I'll add it to the general collection. I currently
have Cherry, Mahogany, and Walnut wood available for custom dildos.
About the varnish...
Each dildo is finished with at least five coats of Salad Bowl Finish,
a food-quality varnish. The finish seals the wood, making them safe,
waterproof, and natural-feeling. I never use any dyes or stains, and
I've never heard of any allergic reactions.
Can I use lubrication with Hardwood Dildos?
Yes, the varnish is durable and is not affected by oil- or water-based
lubricants. Just wipe clean when done.
How should I clean my dildo?
Wash with mild soap and water, and dry with a clean cloth, after each
use. In practice, it seems okay to simply wipe dry after use, and wash
occasionally. As with any sex toy, use condoms or wash between partners
if it's being shared. Do not boil or put in a dishwasher.
What to consider when choosing a dildo...
Bigger is not always better! You can get an idea of the thickness you
want by measuring the toy, penis, or fingers you already use. All dildos
here have the diameter listed in inches, or two measurements if the
ends are different. Curves, ribs, or knobs are up to your personal preference.
How are the prices determined?
The price of each dildo is based on its size, complexity, and wood type.
Prices average $100, which is a comparable to other high quality dildos
or handcrafted art.
When will you add more dildos to the website?
I have some new Locust wood dildos that are almost done, but I'm busy
now with gardening. Hopefully by June 2008.
Where else I can buy Hardwood Dildos?
Visit A Woman's Touch if you're in Madison, or The
Garden in Columbus. Maybe someday in Spartacus Leathers
in Portland, or Toys in Babeland in Seattle?
Do you offer a wholesale discount?
35% off, 10 or more. Please be aware that while there is only one of
each dildo, I can make copies of any style you like. Contact me for more details:
info@hardwooddildos.com.
Do you protect private information?
Yes. Your email and address will never be sold, traded, or shared. I
use email only for orders and questions, no lists or newsletters. Paypal
handles the credit card transactions so I never see your credit card
information. Orders are mailed with H-D Shipping on the return address.
