Help with cylinder size?

Hey guys. I’ve been PE’ing for about 6 months now and I feel like I am conditioned well enough to get into pumping. I have been clamping for the past 2 months with no luck at all, my MSEG is still at a silly 4.0”, 4.1” on a good day. I want to give pumping a try. I just spent the past 2 hours reading up threads on pumping, but I need advice on what cylinder size I should choose. I saw the chart posted in another thread, according to the chart I should get a 1.5” cylinder but I don’t want to get the cylinder, and one month later have to purchase a new one so should I just go for the 1.75” and work up to it or should I just start off with the 1.5”?

I’m hoping to get some length out of pumping as well, it seems like I have depleted my newbie gains by now and have plateau’d for a good 2 months now =(

The main problem using a larger cylinder is that your balls can be drawn up into the pump which can be a mite painful.

However You can tie a strap or preferably some crepe bandaging around your balls and that should keep them out of the cylinder.

I would go for the 1.75”. as you will swell up when using the pump. and your MSEG can easily swell when the vacuum is applied.

Don’t forget to shorten your pubic hair. lube the base of the cylinder and wet the end of it, then give it a twist before applying the vacuum.

Good luck, and come back with any problems or questions.

I’m going to jump into this thread since I have a similar question

I am at max 5.25” in circumference and measured across the top at the thickest point I am 1.75”. It has been suggested that I get the 1.75” cylinder, however since I’m the same thickness at this, there won’t be any room for me to expand. I would really like to increase girth, so would having a tube this size hinder my girth increases? Could I get a 2” cylinder?

formamabear, I understand completely just wanting to buy 1 cylinder that lasts a long time and that was my motivation for making the cylinder size chart. You really will be most comfortable in the 1.5” tube as far as your balls not being sucked into it. The 1.5” tube will take you up to 4.75” girth and that isn’t bad. I would say that tube should give you a good years use and if you buy your 2nd tube from picturebrite, the cost isn’t bad. I think lapdist is the only source for 1.5” tubes.

Since you are at 5.25” girth and going for girth, the chart is pretty clear you should get the 2” tube.

The other option for an inexpensive 1.5” diameter cylinder would be to go the aquarium cleaning tube route. It’s a little more work, though.
