Thanks guys! Awesome to see that my progress inspires others. I've been really busy lately, but hopefully will start making more time for PE soon.
Clamping with a pad is always better than with nothing. I've used a variety of things--pulling my cock through the slit in boxers and clamping around that fabric, using the top of a cock (cut off), or TheraBand. The boxer way is my preferred method BC if I add too much extra girth, I end up busting the clamp.

I didn't want to risk being in public and having it slip off.
My OxBalls cockring is for keeping extra girth all day. The thing is so comfortable, and honestly if I wear it without even doing PE that day, at the end of the day my cock looks and feels like it went through a nice girth workout.
