Hey, I was searching on amazon after reading one of Supra's ball stretching threads and found this...

http://www.amazon.com/Climax-Metal-..._1?s=industrial&ie=UTF8&qid=1300973925&sr=1-1

The inner diameter is 1.5 inches or 38mm which is perfect. It weighs almost the same as the real WMC weights found at secret leather which are too pricey.

My question is are they safe to wear around your balls for long periods of time? Thank you

Hi truant, Yes, I'd been considering doing the same thing. I think the shaft collars will work. What I'm concerned about are sharp edges. There may be some filing and sanding to do to make the edges smooth.

As a weight? How much does each ring weigh?

I get the idea looking at the McMaster carr website that the shaft collars are probably similar in weight to regular ball weights. Maybe slightly less in weight. But.... the price is right at: 13 to 17 dollars a piece. Worth a try. I will try them in the next month or so and let you guys know.

Yeah exactly, they probably weigh a little less but you can't go wrong for the price. I saw a good selection of ID 1-1/2 collars on amazon but if you want other sizes they could be more money or ad least on that site. For example, you would need a two piece model and if you want a wider one like around 40mm to 42mm you might want to look into that. I'm going to search around some more and report back. Thanks for feedback guys, I would also be grateful to know Supra's opinion on this matter. :)

Btw I was browsing the site Dan mentioned and found the 40mm. It doesn't mention the weight but they say the width aka height of the collar is 15mm. That's the same height as the wmc ball weights which is a good sign. On Supra's thread he said something like it's better to use two 15mm tall weights instead of a single weight that has a height of 30mm. Like Dan said it would be great to find one with a seamless design for comfort, but if anything I'm shore you could file down the steel.

I'm also getting a pipe repair clamp as Kingsnake mentioned for hanging when I order the shaft collars. Instead of the captain's wench for hanging because the clamp is made of steel instead of Velcro and comes out to be cheaper. The 2'' wide one for comfort so I can add extra padding so it can act similar to the BIB. That combined the two 40mm shaft collars comes out to under $50 which is sweet. Wearing these things over time and using them as ADS looks promising to me and I love the fact that it's made of solid steel which will last forever.

Yes, I'd agree truant. Can't go wrong for the price. You're welcome for the feedback, thanks for yours as well. I'd been thinking about doing this for years and now is finally the time to try it. Good luck to you.

I would agree with Supra by the way. From what I've observed, its easier to deal with stacking (especially when first starting out if the ballsack is high and tight) than to deal with one ball weight that is very thick.

Hey truant, could you guide me to the thread that Kingsnake talks about this by chance? That sounds cool, I may do the same thing as my next step is to do some hanging. Thanks!

Glad to help a fellow Penis Enlargementer and MOS member. Thank you for your input and mentioning the the mc master car site which actually gave me some good ideas. They seem to to be on point with their measurements but the collars are little more pricey than the one's on amazon. I was just thinking maybe the shaft collars made of stainless steel would be better for a few reasons. Such as durability reasons, being safer on the skin, looks, and the fact the SS may even weigh an ounce or two extra. Thanks so much for helping me make the right choice. :)

You are very welcome truant! Thank you again as well! Yes, it doesn't any better than all of us helping each other. I bet you are right in your thinking on the SS collars. If you can afford them, I would go that route for sure. McMaster Carr was recommended on MOS by others a few years back, so I give the credit right back to the website. Mike has a wonderful place here and I'm happy to help out however I can.

Thanks for the quick response Dan you took the words right out of my mouth, this site is awesome. Didn't know the MC site was mentioned on MOS years back that's cool. The SS collars on MC are over $40. I was looking on amazon and found this...

http://www.amazon.com/Climax-Metal-..._1?s=industrial&ie=UTF8&qid=1301176901&sr=1-1

This is the only SS collar with workable measurements I saw on amazon. The selection is narrow but the price is right, plus you will get the free shipping. The the pipe repair clamp is cheaper there as well...

Thank you again on the support, MOS is really helping me out with decision making.

It is indeed an awesome site! Everyone is very supportive here. Thank you very much for the links truant, I will check them out! Cheaper is usually better for me and free shipping is a bonus. You're very welcome for the support and promptness. A HUGE thanks to all on this site!

Hey guy's back with an update. I've decided to go with the Mcmaster carr site and purchase two 40mm ID black oxide steel shaft collars. Last night I was looking on the secret leather site again and saw a new product called the Ball Forcer...

http://www.secretleather.com/acatalog/Ball_Trainer.html

This gave me an idea ;). My plan is to get four 12 inch long metal rods and cut them down to size to make different stretch lengths as shown in the link (6 inches being the longest rod). Then I would just have to drill holes into the shaft collars with a regular drill. The diameter of the rods will be 5mm because the width of the collars is 15mm so the 5mm wide rod would fit right in the middle. The best part is it comes out to just above $40 in my cart. Let me know what you guys think.

Here's the link to the shaft collars

Link to metal rods

Wearing this all day long with manual ball stretching should get you a nice pair of low hangers. Right now I'm actually deciding if I should get the collars or just pay $50 more and just get the real LengthMaster even though I have a homemade one :). Maybe someone can help make my decision. Thanks

Also just to let you know, the ball forcer on the SL site looks like it uses only one spacer rod instead of two to make the stretch. So you may not need as much rods as I mentioned because I thought it used two rods to push it up. I guess just less rods to cut and holes to drill in the steel lol. You may also want to file down the inner edges of the shaft collars or wear a sock underneath. The smallest rod they have increased the stretch height by 25mm so I think 25mm is the size of the smallest rod. Then just do your math to find the length of the other rods. A six inch long rod as I mentioned is probably a bit too liberal, if your just starting out but who knows.
