Pump Comfort

So I’ve been pumping for a week and I’m pretty satisfied with the feeling and whatever short term results I get. What I don’t like is when the pressure builds on the base that it’s pressing towards my pelvic region. I tried putting a sleeve on top of the seal ring but its making the air escape. I try to pull it a bit away which helps but I feel like I’m fighting it and I really want most of my shaft inside and not do part way pumping. Do you guys have any suggestions from staying sealed but making it less harder to press on my bone? Thanks

Reduce the vacuum level?

Go to your local hobby/craft store, or eBay, and buy some "ShapeLock" or one of the other low-melting-point plastics.
The stuff gets soft at hot coffee temperature, and stays soft until just warm, when it hardens.

I’m now using a LeLuv tube with a rolled entry edge, which doesn’t need modification, but my old tube had a narrow edge and dug in hard. I made a wide base flange with shapelock. If your tube is oversize, you can also fill in the inside of the opening a bit to make it smaller.

I tried making a "tang" that extended out over the scrotum area, but it didn’t work very well. I might not have had the right shape. You’re also not limited to a round opening any more; a simple D shape mght do the trick.

You can just dip the mouth of the tube back into hot water, soften the shapelock, and re-mold it as you wish, pinch off or add bits, etc. It stuck very well to the plastic of my tube.

Hot water doesn’t bother it when cleaning, but a baby-bottle sterilizer will melt it. Oops.

Thanks Andy. I’ve just googled it, learned something new! When I upgrade I’ll definitely get a leluv. This tube might be awhile.

You can make all sorts of small items out of shapelock. Search for it on Youtube. Some guy even made a set of dentures out of it.

You can get a soft silicone base cushion to put on the bottom of your tube. There are bunch of options and sellers on eBay to choose from. Just search "silicone base for penis pump tube."

The one issue I had with one I bought was the opening was too small for my base girth, but I was able to trim it with some scissors. So keep that in mind when you are shopping, if you end up doing that.

I recently got a LeLuv cylinder with a flared bottom and I have to agree it is very comfortable on its own so worth a consideration when you get a new one.

Thanks for pointing that out bro When I first got my pump, I couldn’t believe I need to use the largest seal because the others are too tight. I googled a few and had to pay attention to the diameter on both inner and outer.
