Besides what is mentioned above there are easier methods for tieing yourself up for 30 minutes.

What you probably need to know is that most people who are into self bondage know what software is available. One of these programs is a CD Tray opening software that opens the CD tray of ones computer after XX minutes. Now what you might not know is that you can connect a shoelace to the CD Tray, which if closed is stuck in it. But if the CD Tray opens, falls down. This way you can connect keys to the shoelace and you have a so called release mechanism, with deadly precision of timing.

Another non software related system many people use is Ice timers. Basically they freeze a key or string in a block of ice and then put this somewhere high or just out of reach. As soon as the ice melted enough, the keys drop down and one can acces the keys. Disadvantage here is that its not very accurate in terms of timing, but most reliable.

Now this only leaves you puzzled with how can you tie yourself up... Basically as long as your hands are free one can tie anything rather easy. Securing feets, legs, chests to objects or themselves. The only tricky part is the hands. Most selfbondage enthousiast save these for last and use handcuffs to cuff their hands behind their back. This doesnt allow them to undo any knots they made somewhere else and will force them to wait for the key to fall down to uncuffs those handcuffs.

If you have any other questions, let me know.
