What's the Largest Cylinder I Should Use?

What’s the largest cylinder I should be using in terms of diameter?

peforeal wrote in pumping and base girth :

…so I’m imagining a 0.5" difference between penis-diameter and cylinder-diameter is not too much…

…but I’m wondering what the maximum effective difference is. (e.g. my erect girth is 5" (approx. 1.5" in diameter), could I use a 2.5 inch diameter cylinder effectively, or should I stick with a 2" diameter cylinder?

Or could I use an even bigger cylinder, say 3" or 3.5" or larger?

Also- if I’m concentrating on girth would I need to change for a larger tube as soon as I fill the one I’m using?

Actually, a .25” diameter difference is huge. For your girth of 5” a 1.75” tube would be best. If you get larger, you will constantly be fighting your balls being sucked into the tube.

If your base girth is 5.5”, then you could go with a 2” diameter tube, but no larger.

If you got a 3 or 3.5” tube, you could put your entire package in it.

Beaver Eager,

I agree with Gprent. The biggest cylinder you should be using would be a 2" diameter. Keep in mind that I started with a 1.75" diameter pumping my cock and have worked my way up in .25" increments over several years. Just going up a 1/4 inch in diameter translates into a 3/4 inch increase in girth or circumference. If you jump into a larger size cylinder too quickly, you’ll have difficulty keeping your ballsac from being sucked into the tube. Unless you’re wanting to pump both your dick and ballsac, you should stick with the smaller diameter for now and work up.

Once you can consistently "pack" most of your shaft, then it’s time to move up a 1/4" in the next diameter. This should help in your quest for girth.

Trust what gprent and peforeal say. They know about tube sizing, and some other cool stuff.

gprent, thanks…Having re-read pumping and base girth in light of the above it’s making a lot more sense to me.

As far as my base girth goes I think I’m 5" (5" at base and mid shaft & 5.5" below the head (the figures on the My PE Stats page are incorrect, I’ve tried changing them and adding to them but it hasn’t seemed to have refreshed the information))

peforeal, thanks, that makes a lot of sense, I’m definitely going to opt for the 1.75" tube.

avocet8, thanks for the input…to the newbie (which I kind of still am) so much of PE seems like superstition that it’s good to get re-assurance that I’m heading in the right direction.

I’m interested in enlarging my head also, but I’ve got some reading to do before I can formulate a useful question especially in light of the above information and the response I’ve just received from Dr. Kaplan inc. with regards their Head Enlarger.

Go for a 15% increase in both lenght and girth
