Hmm well that's why I'm bringing it up here. I'd very much like to know what needs to be done before I go and spend 55 dollars on a new cage...

I've been thinking on this a little heavier and I think I've reached a conclusion. I will simply measure how much extra room there is in the existing cage and go down from there so that there is just enough room for my flaccid length. I also think I'll have a conversation about this with the manufacturer before I go ahead and order a new cage so that I know precisely what I'm doing. If anyone here thinks this is a bad idea, please speak up now...

fonetik2003,

Not to pee on the parade, but IMHO it is a bad idea. I've been there, done that. That was my idea when I ordered my first custom metal device. It just didn't work for long term wear. With a cage that is too small, you have no room for attempted erections and you will have them. Initially they will come at night, and as time goes along, from just being in the same room with your keyholder. Too snug a cage will eventually cause discomfort and soreness. On top of that, you can't properly clean nor dry your shaft inside a cage that's too tight. Eventually, odor will be a problem. You have to step aside from the fantasy and look at it from a practical point of view. You will be just as locked in a cage with a little wiggle room as you will in one that's tight. I plan to produce a longer thread later on my point of view on the sizing process, but for now, this is my 2 cents.

I think this is really sound advice... I have a nightmare time with nocturnal erections, so much so I don't wear at night when home. Just being in CQ's bed makes me hard and getting up to deal with the erections 4 times a night, well the reality is I can't function at work and with customers so we take it off... I have even tried a BON4 for night time on the hope that being silicone it would be more giving, it is, but it is such an ugly and bulky bit of kit... and makes me very sore and cleaning and drying is as Wishful4 described, much harder.

I have a custom device and it is exactly the right size. I am 2.3" when soft and 6.5" when hard. You just cannot surpress that amount of growth. My device is 2.5" in length and the cage is 1" in diameter.

The erections I get from being teased are bearable as part of the sesion but they do hurt nd pull on the scrotum and internal ligaments badly, I think it is just part of the life of the locked male, we suffer hard ons and deal with it. I don't believe that you can really surpress erections completely (drugs aside)

Hmm indeed! Very well then! I'll see how the 2.5 treats me and go from there. Thank you for the input people!

I assume you have made your call and I'm sure it's going to turn out fine ;)

For future reference though, I highly recommend this guide: http://www.chastitymansion.com/forum/in ... it-devices

I'm pretty sure that the 1 7/8 inch ring is what I need given my experience with the CB-2000. (They said that their rings were comparable on the manufacturer's website.) If not, I'll simply call the maker and order a 2 inch ring. As for the cage, it will likely be too long. I intend to lock myself in it for the first time and let myself go flaccid. Then, I'll measure from the tip of the cage to the tip of my penis and subtract that measurement from the known length of the cage (2.5 inches). That would be my ideal cage length! And to make sure it's accurate, I intend to take 3 measurements the first time. And then 3 more measurements at various points in the day. (assuming that I'm not aroused and am flaccid) Then I'll tally my data and throw out any measurements that were really off the curve as they were more than likely erroneous. Then I'll simply take and average and go to the next highest cage design from there. For example, if my average comes to 1.39, I'll go up to a 1.5 inch cage.

Did I ever mention that I worked in a chemical lab? That's actually a modified version of the measurement system I used to use when I worked there... Tell me what you think people!

Also, after reading the article, I'm pretty sure I'll need a 1.5 inch diameter as I have plenty of girth, even when flaccid. Although I found that part about night pain to be interesting and would like more information on this topic. I'm wearing a 2 inch ring right now and I wake up and just pee every night. Would this mean that the base ring is too large at 2 inches? I mean, when flaccid I normally have a little bit of wiggle room which is why I believe that a 1 7/8 inch ring would be ideal...

My shackle is a home made ball trap device that is a 1.25 poly pipe curve and a bicycle chain base ring suitably moulded and sheathed. There is also a grill internally butted at the end to prevent the penis being shoved out from the front; recently I warped the tube a little trying to dye it in boiling water and during a wicked tease session the grill popped from it's fitting to rest in the shaped end of the tube, giving about 1/2 inch more length as well as a slightly larger width in the area where the glans expands into.

The difference in night erections is marked and not good. They've gone from an uncomfortable pressure to a full erection that has to endure a bend and the unforgiving bike chain dragging my balls half way up the pole. I can cope until I get out to effect a repair but my advice would be to go as small as you can get into without losing circulation.

Well in that instance, would you suggest going really small and scrunching her cock into a really small cage or should I allow some "breathing room" as it were? I'm getting mixed signals here!

Okay! Never mind! Pansy Tart's methods set me straight! I'm a "grower" and we're looking at just under 2 inches when flaccid and as such, I'm thinking 1 inch should be fine for cage length. I also noted that I have plenty of girth, even when flaccid, so 1 1/8 inch to 1 1/4 inch would probably do the job in the width of the cage in question considering that I evidently want some room around her dick. The only real X factors here are the gap (3/8 inch will probably be fine, but that remains to be seen) and the ring size. Ring size, I believe that the 1 7/8 inch that it comes with is what I need, though if I suffer any night pain, I'll know to order a sizing kit in so I can get more accurate measurements right before ordering a new ring. Thank you very much for your help here people! I appreciate it!
