Base packing question

I am packing around 4/5 of my cylinder, just not right below the glands or at the tip of the galnds. Thew only problem is that when I try my larger cylinder, I get slight pain like I am sucking up veins that I shouldn’t be sucking up. Later the next day, I sometimes get slight pains and I think it is from this. What do you guys suggest? Should I use a cock ring and the bigger cylinder? Would the cock ring cause a weird look/effect to my base girth?

Thanks for the help!

Any info/advice would be awesome. The main reason I want to get to the 2” cylinder is because I want to focus a little more towards girth. I have been using the 1.75” and I have gain almost .75” in length, but only slight girth gains. I have been pumping for just about a month and I am just curious to everyone’s thoughts.

Hey Trunk ,

First , do not be in a hurry , if you are in your first month of pumping , don’t be concerned about packing your cylinder , just keep to a safe routine , the packing will come , in time . As far as pain , that is never good , and should be a warning to stop doing what you are doing . Patience , the body cannot be rushed into changes without risking injury . Whose cylinders are you using ? A company called Pumptoys sells a line of ” Velseal ” cylinders , that have large , smooth , soft rings that seal the opening of the cylinder , and prevent pinching , and also having your scrotum or testes sucked into the tube , which could be a source of the pain you mention . Good luck .

Pain is never good. Avoid doing what causes pain.

Do you stage from the thinner tube to the larger one or pump directly into the 2” tube?

I have tried to stage, but I seem to get the same results everytime. It is kind of hard to explain. I have heard about using a ring to help, but wasn’t sure if I should try that at this point. One concern is that I am not getting any further girth gains since I am packing the 1.75”. In my head I am thinking that if I am packing already, how will I add based girth to be able to safely use my 2”.

Thanks for the replies.

I bought a Kaplan pump with a 2” tube and found I was packing straight away, which was good as I`m more interested in length. However, after a while I didn`t feel I was gaining at all, so I bought the 2.5” tube. This tube should manage all the way up to 7.85” girth. After an hour or so pumping with the 2.5”, I can generally pack about the bottom 3” of the tube. Since using this tube, I cannot even enter the 2” tube fully when erect.

I guess that the bigger the tube, the further it allows expansion (to a point), therefore I don`t see packing a tube as being important at all.

Vince, how did you deal with all the excess room that was there when you used the bigger tube? My problem is that I I get skin sucked up in there and I don’t feel that I am getting expansion, just paking it with whatever gets sucked in. Does this make any sense, kind of hard to explain?

Well, my pump came with a little strap which I used to keep the boys tucked away from the cylinder, as shown here;

Nowadays I don`t really use it with the 2.5” cylinder. I just make sure that no lube makes contact with anything I dont want sucked up in there. The only downside to this cylinder is that it could do with a rubber seal to make it more comfortable. After a while it feels like its bruising my pubic bone.
