If it wouldn't be too much trouble could you please supply me with the diameter of the holes for the Abyss bracket. As I need to buy the appropriate drill bit and bolts for the big day.

Thanks kindly .
Hi Homelessfish,
Back again to answer your request:
Holes in the Abyss bracket: 1/2"
Hardware used: 3/8" UNC Carriage Bolt
The hole distance on the bracket measures 2 3/4" not 2 7/8"! This happened because I measured the distance of the bolts :( .

I suppose because they fix it to the wood back panel and for easier installation they prefer 1/2" holes on the bracket which is wide for 3/8" bolts.
A 7/16" drill is enough for 3/8" bolts but you need 3/8" SAE flat washers to compensate the 1/2" holes.

:D Guy
Thanks once again Siliconefun for such detailed help to my question, well and truly above and beyond expectations. :D :D :D

Happy to hear this but you will be wondered when Brooklyn arrives at your new home as RealDolls are very challenging so make her an extravagant good stand 8)

Oh swanhealy,
both gals tricked me out too as I thought to catch their more intimate play but suddenly they decided to leave the bed for taking a shower :x
You think dolls spend hot scenes?....only when they want :haha4: ...and of course with much pampering :evidence:

how did you get kicked out? It looked like there was plenty of room for you right there in the middle :-)

I don't know how you were able to take so many great looking photos without a break in between :whistle:

Hi oneatatime,
That's not so easy with Mia & Zoe together, sometimes both gals show their claws like wild cats and sometimes they purr like house cats.
This weekend they play the house cat game :razz: (promised) and my Joker: X-mas in a few weeks, hehe.
My inspiration to take much photos comes from both redheads (can't get enough even when I live with them) and music who influences my creativity very much (mostly seductive lounge).

Thanks much for looking :D

Guy, Mia & Zoe

Hi Siliconefun,
I've already made Brooklyn's stand just need to attach Abyss bracket and a lower back support hopefully stand is strong enough. I built a prototype and tested it and it seemed to hold. The picture I posted earlier shows the stand we plan to just wheel her in and out, but I guess we'll see when she arrives. 14 weeks today and counting since our order, I hope she'll fit on santa's sleigh for xmas!

Hi Homelessfish,
From what I've experienced with Zoe the doll works great but I will shorten the stand due to the body B height (Will post this modification). The lower back support gives her a straight standing pose on photos and even this part is easy to build with a wooden plate, a good firm sponge and a piece of fabric tacked on the backside of the plate (I've used a piece of an old leggings)
I've build mine the same design like the Abyss ones.
When you dress the doll this back support isn't convenient and hinders much so it's better to hang the doll on a stand, wall or ceiling hook with appropriate space around.
Your stand looks great and with the wheeled base the doll is easy to move around. Think to build the same type as yours as it's a good design :thumbs_up:
Let's hope Brooklyn will come with Santa's presents as we're very curious to see her too

:D Guy

Hi Nova-I,
LOL, nice formulation, Hot-dog in a bun :haha4:
Perhaps it works for the entire next week. 14 holidays needs to be killed until end of year, I like to kill them when lying between the cats :twisted: and for new shootings.
Perhaps you can catch a Playboy Bunny bed sheet on the net (quality is :thumbs_up: )

Hi Siliconefun,
Interesting what you said about back support, as I initial thought about making a fixed support like the one you mentioned, but now think I want to change that design for the reasons you said. As I want my stand to do everything, I'm thinking of a hard piece of foam shaped in a C that can easily come off for dressing but be firm enough for back support.

Thanks about your compliments about my stand but it does remain untested as I plan to store Brooklyn on it. Its made from bits and pieces from the hardware store, the post is a aluminium fence post, plywood and lockable wheels. I guess if it had a weakness it would be the post I don't know anything about welding but it looks strong to me what do you think?

Yes and will post pics of our Brooklyn.

Mr Fish
Apologies for straying off topic from your new beaut Zoe.

Cool sounds like you have your holidays planned it pretty well. Just like the Summer Fun 2014 photo shoot I have a big 2014 Holiday shoot planned for the next few weekends. Just waiting for Thera & Mikayla to arrive which should be in the next few weeks. Thanks for the Playboy Bunny bedding info I'll be ordering one for sure.

Hope you can catch a Playboy Bunny bedding and have fun with it :twisted:

Hi Homelessfish,
This will be a good compromise with a detachable C shaped hard foam back support as it's only used to correct the standing pose. In this case, remove the back support to prevent impression marks when not used!!!
The aluminium fence post looks strong enough :thumbs_up: and plywood is very solid so I think this stand holds Brooklyn without any doubts.
Good work :thumbs_up:

:wink: Guy
