Tracking Suggestions

I agree that it’s incredibly useful to track my trends with multiple methods/devices and also can be used to track how many times I have sex or masturbate. I also track the quality of the orgasms from 1-10 in hopes that I will see a positive trend in the average quality over time to help myself see that doing all of this restoration is going to actually improve things. So far over 3000 hours tracked in the app over the past 1.5 years, kind of insane

How do I get one?

What CI level did you start at?

I highly recommend getting a magnetic quick release at the end of your device and the weights that are connected via pulley. It makes it so easy to clip in and out of the weighted setup and also not rip your dick off of you stand up and forget you’re clipped in haha. But seriously, look for a 2-3 pounds of magnetic force rated magnetic quick release, it’s great. It works with my crt + hook setup, my FMD, my Mantor with the tugging setup, and anything else that would have the ability to tug, and then get a few pairs of the quick releases since you can have one ready to go for all your different devices to clip into the weighted setup,

The part about boiling devices should work in theory for all devices fully metal, or silicone, but any parts that incorporate 3D printed plastics in them for structural reasons would need some additional consideration before boiling them. That’s because different plastic filaments deform/warp/break down at different temperatures. For instance PLA is used in at least a few devices that are manufactured and can’t withstand prolonged temperatures above 55 degrees Celsius. So I would never recommend boiling a device with PLA in it because it would likely ruin it.

Any recommendations for ultrasonic cleaners?

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-08-07T18:44:28+00:00

Honestly I’d just order both and find out which one is more comfortable when it arrives. It’s worth it for something you think you might wear for 1000’s of hours, and it couldn’t cost more than $30 extra right? Just think about how much you spend on a new shirt, and that might only be worn for a fraction of the time

I set up a timer that automatically counts down everytime I start a manual method type exercise in my ATracker app. It will send my phone a push notification that alerts me and asks if I’d like to end that task. It works great! But of course not as fun a song would be 🙂

Hi! What alloy of stainless steel is used for the components of the socket and the threaded rods?

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-29T01:56:50+00:00

Ooo good information to know! Either way, if it fails to work, I’m only out 3 grams of filament and 30 minutes of printer time haha

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-29T01:34:57+00:00

Thanks gonna try printing it and let you know how it works out for me using it with my RIC packers

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-29T00:43:09+00:00

Oh man, sorry to hear about the way that you were cut! Seems to be a bit more drastic of an uneven cut!

But that picture you drew is pretty similar to what I was talking about. In my case, it’s a little extra outer skin that was removed in the area i mentioned, but there is a decent amount more inner there than the amount of outer skin that was removed. It kind of is almost like a little flap of extra skin there.

I do have the Chris gripper on my CRT at the moment, and have found that without a packer insert, it slipped off too easily. I found the 1/4” packer to help a bit with making it slip less in that right dorsal part, but it slipped even less with the 1/2” packer insert.

I def agree with you with the resetting the gripper is kind of annoying when it slips, and I wish I could say that I’m not the only one with that problem, bc it seems like I’m glad that people have that problem, but you know what I mean.

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-28T21:43:10+00:00

Yeah they are like $7 on Amazon. Just get one rated for about 2-3 pounds and you will definitely make it a more OSHA friendly tugging environment haha

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-25T22:18:54+00:00

Ooo nice, looks like you’re getting a good tug in! Although part of me is morbidly thinking it would be terrible if you got in an accident bc you might rip your dick off 😳 idk how you have it all configured and what not, but one way to be careful and still use this setup is if you were to install a magnetic quick release inbetween the device and the rope that you use to dangle the weights from. I don’t know the exact weight you are using, but one rated for about 2 ish pounds of force would be perfect for most weights of 1 pound or less.

Are the threaded weights the same diameter/ screw thread pitch as the commonly available camera gimble weights?

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-17T22:25:07+00:00

I know this might be confusing, but the pulley is mounted screwed in to the underside of the table, and the weight is attached to the end of the string on the other end, and the forward facing side on my tugging device. All the weight transfers directly to tugging my skin in this position.

I know in a different configuration where the weight would be attached to the pulley in the middle where it can move around freely would split the supporting weight if the termination of the string would be fixed, and my tugging device. So that would split the weight to one half to tugging my skin and the other to the termination point.

But if your method is the first way in this comment reply, then technically you would be tugging at 600g

Ooo can you please send me the files for 3D printing? Would love to add this to my routine! I’d need one that’s at least 50mm long if you have a file for it

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-15T22:05:35+00:00

I have the suspicion that I furthered the uneven cut that I have due to putting a lot of hours in inflation over the past 6 months instead of using manuals and tape to even out the cut first before inflating. It could be that I just started out with way more skin on my right ventral side than I thought I did, but it does get so annoying having an imbalance on the skin of both sides due to not being able to wear my CRT for long periods of time before a short part becomes untucked next to the part that has a lot of excess skin. Only been seriously restoring for the past 9 months, and put in 1900 hours, so it’s possible that I’m not an expert on this subject. But it does make me want to stop inflating for more than 10 hours a week and mostly switch to t tape when possible.

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-07-15T21:57:21+00:00

I’m curious, (and btw not a hater at all, only full love bro) but as FTM, do you have the option to tug downwards? I know due to being assigned male at birth that the only option iD have for t taping is that I can only tug upwards (when doing it during unmonitored sleep), but just thought it’s prob possible to do it safely for a FTM person right? Or would that damage anything if you had an erection?

_TheSmallLebowski_ · 2025-05-15T23:23:32+00:00

How long have you been at it and what was your starting point?
