Sorry Newb with more questions

[chastityrandy]

Sorry to post so many questions, but thanks for your patience and great advice.

1. first question is around ring size. I have a cb6Ks and is mostly comfortable. Longest straight I've worn it is a little over 3 days. I started with the largest and had a single ball pullout issue and switched to two rings down with mostly good comfort. Second time under lock this same ring size caused my testicles to turn dark purple within minutes so i went to the second largest ring and all seems well after two 3 day lockups. I have always had very tight testicles and this ring size makes things even tighter. when i get an erection my testicles still turn dark purple but quickly revert to normal color after my erection subsides. I have read that the cb6Ks is easy for pullouts and still having orgasms, but there is no way on earth i could pull out or have an orgasm with the whole package being as tight as it is, I can feel the pressure 24 hours a day, but I would not say it is particularly painful even with an orgasm as i have been able to "work" through it. Problem is, I don't want to cause any medical issues or long lasting problems. I guess I could simply go to the larger ring size and see if I still have pullout problems, but what is a good way to gauge the healthiness of the fit?

2. My wife played with me this morning to see what an erection looked like with it on. This was an incredible rush for me and apparently very entertaining for her given her laughs and gigles as I writhed back and forth. she noticed the purple testicles which alarmed her until i sad it was "normal" and then saw my tip bursting to come out of the slit at the end which she decided to rub her finger over - my god this was ultra ultra sensitive. she didn't let me cum after the teasing and the replay has made me hard almost all day long which causes me to bulge out of the tip every time and I have the same sensitivity. there is no visible abrasion, but the feeling is quite extreme. Is this normal?

I have it on 24 hours a day for about 3 days at a time and then she lets me out for cleaning. everything feels fine and i don't have pain when i put it back on - in fact it feels great again. So do I have it right?

I want to order a Queens Keep which is another significant investment. So I want to make sure I have things right before I spend the money.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Have you tried increasing the spacer size? A general rule of thumb is smaller base ring, larger spacer. Had same problem with my 6ks. Larger spacer solved it. I know, a longer spacer seems counterintuitive but it worked for me.

Ok, as for your #1 question, have you tried the largest base ring size while decreasing the gap? This maybe the answer to prevent a ball slipping out. Anyone wearing a CB device will tell you it's tweaking both the base ring and gap size before you get it right.

As for #2, yes you are experiencing some normal feelings, especially while this is all new to you. Bulging out the holes while aroused is normal as long as it's not too painful. You are doing the right thing in the beginning by checking yourself every few days for any soreness.

IMO, you are doing the right thing by getting use to the CB6000s before you drop hundreds on a custom device. When you feel things have settled down, then you can begin to take measurements for the QK

Good Luck.

Thanks to both of you. A smaller gap seems counterintuitive especially since my testicles are normally tight so a smaller gap seemed like it would cut off flow more than ring size as well as cause tip protrusion to be worse during erection, but the great thing about a cb device is the ability to experiment. Seems like they don't advertise on the best attributes of the device. I also travel by air a lot with my work so I imagine it will always be a necessary part of the lifestyle.

Thanks again for the help. This has been a great forum for me...oh an my kh!

I agree with what happyman1 said but, you need to reread what he said. Pay attention to INCREASE you are adding spacers not decreasing them.

A smaller gap seems counterintuitive especially......

I was referring to this comment. So far the smaller gap and larger ring seems to work.

I think you're on the right track now. Eventually you may find that you want a smaller ring, and that may require the use of a thicker spacer. As someone else said, you want to learn what works with this one before you drop a shitload of dough on metal.

Thanks. So far this combo seems to work so I'll stick withthis. How long would you recommend I stay with the cb6k before it's "safe" to order metal? I'd like for my wife to extend the time keeping me locked, but I think she feels "sorry" for me and always let me out and have a release at three days when it's time for cleaning. I don't want to criticize her because she is trying to take control. Some how i need to suggest to her to make me do 5 or 6 days. Then i could be more confident the current combo of ring and gap size works.

I would suggest staying with the cb6k for at least a couple of months. I ordered my first Jailbird after only about 6 weeks in my cb3k and it ended up way too big. I think if I had waited it would have at least been closer to what it should have been.

Likewise, I think you are about on about how long you should stay in at one time to get a good idea of what will work. I was going to suggest a week but six days is probably close enough. I found with all my devices that if I could go a week I could go a month. If I couldn't go a week, something needed to be changed and then try again.

Everyone is different so I can only go by what has worked for me.

The cage diameter and length are the most important measurements to get right the first time. I used my time (months because I didn't think metal could feel any better. Boy was I wrong) in my CB6000s for both of these measurements. I went with the same diameter but shortened the length by a 1/2" on MM suggestion. I have since made modifications to shorten that up again and have now settled on what is best for me. I enjoy a restrictive confinement.

The base ring and gap size, at least with MM is an easy quick fix if for some reason you get it wrong. I have always recommended getting two base rings (if you can afford it). Order one that is one size just down from your CB ring (because the metal ring sits differently than the wider plastic ring) then order a spare that is the next size down from that. If you do need to make a modification in either the ring or gap size it's a $10.00 charge and the turn-a-round is pretty quick.

Bottom line, I would give it a good month or two with observing how you sit in the cage, then take into consideration how restrictive you want to feel. The JB and QK are very easy to keep clean so I wanted to be right up against the bars which gives me a nice secure feeling.

Good Luck
