Problems getting the right fit

Post by TheDude »

Hi All,

I've been playing round with a knock off CB6000, and have been having problems with the fit. My issue is that the device does not stay close to my body at all. I end up with my errection building up behind the cage, and the cage sliding down my penis. The result is that my penis ends up at its full length of around 5 inches and even under clothes is very obvious as it sticks out horizontally. I've tried going down in ring size and spacer size, but had little luck. With the smaller ring, the same issue occurs. I can't go any smaller as I can't actually get it on. With a smaller spacer, the colour of my balls went considerably darker after a few minutes so I removed it.

I've also got an issue with the vents. I am uncut so have plenty of skin. I originally tried taping over the holes with tape which worked well aside from having to remove the tape to clean it and cut more tape, I tried using epoxy resin to fill in the holes and sand it down flush with the tube, but I tried wearing it again since and have experience some itching and swelling as a result, so I will have to buy a new device anyway.

I'd rather buy an immitation device again to try the fit first. I was looking at the curve, although the holy trainer also looks interesting although I can't see any for the holy trainer. I don't want to pay the full price for a device that may not fit. I was hoping that someone could give me some pointers if anyone has had a similar issue? I'm not so worried about security.

Cheers :)

I find that with the smallest spacer it stays very close to the body IF you use the smallest ring that fits. If you think you have problems, try getting a good fit with two different sized balls. I have to compromise and accept the occasional slip off.

The curve will have even more pronounced trouble with the slits. Sounds like you are ready for an upgrade to a metal made to measure device!

Yesterday I tried three different combinations to fit the condition of my balls throughout the day. At first, using no spacer worked. Then it felt too tight and was pinching me so I went to the second largest ring and the small spacer but my balls started to hurt so I went back to the largest ring with the smallest spacer to sleep with and even then, I woke up with my balls on fire for some reason. No erection, just a burning feeling under the ring around my balls. I moved the ring further down and the pain subsided.

I have two problems, the different sized balls as mentioned above and that even the largest ring pushed my penis in-between my balls so that my penis is hidden between them pointing down. I basically put on my CB with no penis in the tube. After a while, if I get stimulated enough for it to start growing, it will enter the tube on its own since that is where the tube is positioned. I also do not like that it does not fit flush with my body because the weight of the tube/lock on the top of my penis becomes sore after a while so I have to always sit with my balls resting on something rather than hanging freely. We are still in the experimenting and testing stage but so far we see no benefit for the CB other than discouraging masturbation. My wife likes to cum together so any prolonged chastity actually goes against her preference so we will probably go back to our old routine of sex in the middle the week and then a free for all on the weekend depending on our desire.

I have considered this route, I'm a bit put off by the price though. I'd be willing to pay this if I knew that it would definitely fit, but given that the CB6000 should be pretty customisable and I am struggling to find the right combination, it's making me wonder if I'm doing something wrong or if my annatomy is slightly unusual and unsuitable for trapped ball devices. I think this is unlikely and it's more likely that I am doing something wrong. With the curve, I think that the longer slits would be okay, and just the small vents would be an issue like the CB6000 vents.

The smallest ring I could get on was already a struggle, and I couldn't get it close to my body, it still moved away, and I had the same problem. I tried this with minimal lube aswell in the hope that it would stay, but it didn't work.

I've tried going down in spacer size, but my balls had started to turn blue so I stopped and went up a spacer size and they quickly returned to normal. When I was trying to use the smallest ring I could, when I went to bed I noticed my balls felt very warm, which I've never had before. I took the device off and the problem went away immediately.

My partner also likes sex so we want to use chastity to prolong foreplay for myself for a few days. It also helps that it meets a few of my other kinks.

I've had the "balls on fire" problem before, but it was months ago. I am careful to use baby oil in the area where my scrotum touches the metal after every shower, because I believe it helps to allow the skin to slide around the metal better. So, for example, when my penis gets hard in the early morning hours as I am beginning to wake up, my scrotum can be pulled a bit without being stuck to the metal. I've heard of guys using other types of oil also. One guy mentioned Almond oil, but baby oil works for me.

In regard to having erections during the day with the device on, I'm thinking that you will have less of those in the coming weeks and months as you become used to having the device. Right now since the device is so new, you are prone to having boners.

I think you are doing the right sorts of things to find the best fit, and I think you will succeed eventually. My device does not have any spacers, and I'm able to wear it comfortably.

You can buy metal rings at the hardware store in various sizes in the area of the store related to rope, chain, etc. Once you know what size ring is comfortable to wear without a chastity device, then you are in a better position to know what size ring will be comfortable WITH a chastity device.

I am currently wearing a CB6ks and have the same issue with the "burning balls". I have been wearing a CB for 2 months now and have not been able to wear it for more than a few hours at night. For me the issue with the CB6ks is the space between the bottom of the cock ring and the bottom edge of the cage. With the largest spacer on the 1&3/4" ring the gap from the top of the ring and the cage is 5/8". However with the just the slightest of pressure put on the front of the cage this gap is less than 3/8". When I get an erection at night (cage is too big) this pushes the base ring forward and the cage down on the top of my ball sack causing extreme pain. This is due to the cage rotating down on the base ring and the bottom inside edge of the cage is relatively flat.

Part of the issue for me is the cage is too big so I can expand too much inside it, and my ball sack is "high and tight" so the cage is pushing down on the ball sack when I start to get hard. Having said all that for many I would recommend the CB-X line as a starting point for a first cage due to the numerous base rings and spacers to find out which is best for you, prior to ordering a custom cage.

I currently anxiously awaiting my Jailbird from MM. I believe that the fact that the cage is smaller in both length and diameter than the CB6Ks (I won't be able to get a partial hard-on) and the fact that the cage has a 1/4' round ring which will not rotate in relation to the base ring will hopefully solve my issues, and I will be able to wear it 24/7.
