Dowel Gag, Chains, And Clevises
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a hardwood dowel gag, challenging enough to wear, becomes considerably more challenging when secured by iron chains and the common hardware store clevis. Ashley Lane certainly seems to think so in this week’s cabin-intrusion fantasia from Infernal Restraints:

What exactly is a “dowel gag” ? It looks like a bit gag… ?
@droolgag Good point. Is there a difference? I could Google this, but no. I’d rather hear it right now, you know?
Er, I meant to say, right HERE. If I wanted to hear it right NOW, I’d Google it. :-)
Literally, it’s made out of a piece of dowel

Well, I tried to Google it, but I’m still in the dark =P Maybe would I see “bit gag” as the general term for such gag, but then again, the function – or aspect – is pretty much the same.
On the other hand, I now know what a dowel is (and now I know what it is in french too).
Yup, a bit gag made from a dowel … as opposed to rubber or metal. A “bit” is originally a piece of horse tack, and is never made from wood as far as I know, because horses don’t need splinters in their mouths; human bondagees are less likely to chew hardwood hard enough to splinter it, so it becomes a bondage option.
Looks uncomfortable enough to be fun, especially with the chains holding it in place!
