Improvised schematics for a variety of homemade artificial vaginas have been published on the Internet. An early example of this was the "simulacrum artificial orifice," published anonymously in the "alt.sex.wizards" FAQ in the 1990s, which was constructed with a block of soft foam rubber, featured a slit for the penis lined with a well-lubricated condom held in place by an O-ring at the opening, and a wooden clothespin at the tip. Other improvised masturbators consist of hollowed out food items, such as a "cucummer," which is made by softening the flesh of a cucumber with boiling water, trimming off sharp edges, and creating a vent slit in the end for air to escape on the in stroke and suction to be created on the out stroke.

Vibrating. These artificial vaginas superficially resemble the previous one, but they have the added feature a vibrating element—usually a removable vibrating bullet that can be easily inserted into a hole into the bottom or the end of the sleeve. For more intensive sensations there are a variety of functions: vibrating, pulsating, surging, multi-speed, etc.

Vibrating bullets are usually controlled by a panel connected by a wire. Some kinds of vibrating artificial vagina are designed to create a sucking effect, replicating the role of a penis pump—with a bulb squeezed by the user.
