teasecraft meetup groups are for folks interested in making their own sex toys / BDSM equipment / other kinky and fun things.

All are welcome, regardless of your (a)sexuality/orientation/gender or what materials you work with (electronics, wood, metal, leather, software, etc.).

The goals of teasecraft are to:

• Create local, sex/kink-positive spaces where people can have informal conversations about making and hacking technology
• Bring together makers and crafters who work with a diverse range of materials
• Give everyone an opportunity to see the fun things that their neighbors are building

teasecraft isn't a formal organization, but a loose collection of people hosting meetup groups in their own local areas.

Just one group? Hey, we've got to start somewhere. Speaking of which...

For things to consider when starting your own teasecraft meetup, check out dorkbot's guide for thoughts about venues, schedule, etc.
