Hmmm now you've got me second guessing my order and thinking on what has been causing my problem.

I'm able to wear the cb6ks with no problem at the smallest gap. Now that flexible 3/8" gap is probably comparable to my current 5/8" rigid gap on my QK so maybe I simply can't tolerate a tight gap on an Mm device.

Other than the cage angle and length, the only other difference is the cage diameter of 1-1/4" vs 1-3/8" on the cb6ks. Maybe that's the problem.

I've got a week or so to make changes to my order.

I don't want to influence your decision. MM will tell up front that, by far, the JB is their most popular seller. That, in itself, tells you something. Like you, I want to go from a 1 3/8 in diameter cage to a 1 1/4 in diameter. This, I think, will help with some of my wearing issues.

Actually my QK is 1-1/4" as is my current ordered JB.

I was thinking going to 1-3/8" (like the cb6ks) might be the way to go as maybe the smaller ID is the problem.

Sorry, I misread your previous post. Just be aware that the larger diameter cage means a smaller gap between the bottom of the cage and the bottom of the base ring which will squeeze the scrotum even more. It's really a crap shoot to get this right. My current device was working perfectly until we took an eight month break and I put on a few pounds. Now I'm searching for the magic combination again. Let us know what you decide to do.

Isn't the gap defined by those two points? I.e., I believe that the post is adjusted until the specified gap is achieved between those two points so I wouldn't think the cage diameter would matter.

I think I shouldn't have used the word gap. My thinking is that MM's gap measurement is taken by measuring 90 degrees to the base ring of the distance to the bottom of the cage entrance. The measurement I'm referring to is if you take a measuring tape and slide it from the bottom of the base ring and touch the bottom of the entrance to the cage. The larger cage would be a little closer to the base ring, thus less room for the scrotum to pass thru thus a tighter grip on the scrotum. Maybe we can get the folks at MM to post and set us straight on all this. My thinking may not be correct.

That's what I would have thought which at least conceptually makes sense until I found out how he changes the gap by bending the post. I've also measured the gap with calipers and it matches what I've said earlier.

I've put in a request to change the cage dia. to 1-3/8" but haven't heard back yet.

I would think that the JB cage ring with the rounded edge would be more forgiving than the lower radiused edge of the QK. My thinking is that the smaller ID in combination with the sharper edge causes me problems when erect putting too much pressure at the base of my penis at one particular spot. I managed this by severely increasing the gap. In reality, by opening the gap at the base by bending the post upwards, I actually moved the cage away from that particular spot.

Instead now, I hopefully can have the tighter gap with the combination of the JB cage ring and the wider cage ID.

We will see. :)

I think I'm going to wait and see how this works out for you before I place my order. Please come back and update this thread after you have worn your JB long enough to tell whether your thinking was correct. Wish you the best.

Hi guys!! Let me see if I can help. If you have more questions please let me know via email. [email protected]

It is very hard to use the CB series as a guide because the top gap may be set with the 1/4" spacer but the actual bottom gap will flex out the 1/2". And yes the stainless does not give so it is not apples to apples.

Most all my customers use the 3/8" gap and are very happy with it. But that is not foolproof. I just recently changed my own ring to a small size and it took me 3 times to get the gap right. If the gap is too tight, you will get a burning sensation or the metal will be cutting into you. If it is too big you may feel like you are being hit in the nuts during morning attempted erections or you may have a testicle pop out. Also you must have the security screw or a lock that is fits tight in the locking hole to prevent the base ring from swiveling too much.
If you are High and tight I have made gaps up to 5/8" and if you hang low I have made gaps down to 1/8".

Since the device is handmade I can change the ring and gap independent of each other so changing the ring will not change the gap. I can also made the gap any size.
In the end, everyone has to find their combination that is right for them. This is why I have made it as easy as possible to make changes. I also only charge $10.00 inside the US to adjust the gap and or ring. It is $30.00 to make the changes outside the US. Also most adjustments take less than a week once I have received it.
Hope this help.

So again please email me with any questions. Thank You William

Hi William, thanks for getting involved.

This might be a daft question, but how do we know what adjustments need to be made? Or do we just describe the symptom and you make alterations as your experience sees fit?
