Piet's stretcher -updated- 2

I have wore my previous stretchers two times for about a month, 1-3 hours daily as far as I know I gained both times 0.5cm in flaccidlength.

I gotta make me one of theses :D

After a couple of sessions with the new base I strongly advice anyone who is going to create a stretcher base ring like mine to make the holes for the eyebolts a tight fit and check for the height where you want the eyebolts to end up. The big holes in mine allow too much movement for the eyebolts and it pinches my flabby skin while in use :s When the eyebolts are fixed in please it should work just fine. Guess I’ll have to make a new one.

I’m kind of late with updated pictures but let’s pretend I was testing the new base ring which doesn’t seem to pinch at all ;) I’ve used a piece of PVC hose to show how I attach the stretcher.

What sort of wrap do you use for this?

Might have to build me one

The wrap I took from a first aid kit and is pretty thin.

Any idea on the amount of traction this thing can reach?

I think somewhere between 3-4kg. However the more traction you use the tighter you have to attach it to prevent slipping and the shorter amount of time you can wear it continuously. Because it uses lateral pressure it does contrict the bloodflow less than normal stretchers.

Do you mind if any of your stretcher pics get posted on the wiki?

The graphical ones, and ones that show the construction well.

Sure you can put them on the wiki. Which ones are the graphical ones?

Piet I do believe I was referring to 3-D ones that you created yourself. Thanks for the permission, I will let you know when I put something up so you can give it a look.

Oh my gosh, you are a genius!
