I've been seeing patterns for making your own cloth and elastic binder. Has anyone else seen these? Are they safe?

Thank you! <3

Never used them as Underworks were only $30 or so.  Some people say you can use those compressing "girdle" type undergarments or bicycle shorts and cut a hole in the crotch for your head. 

I made my own binder. It ended up costing a lot because I kept messing up and needing more tools. It hurt and I ended up buying a real binder.

Not necessarily. I think it would be how tight it is and whether or not there was any give. I think if it tended to get tighter, it might be dangerous.
