I had some D-ring shackles in the garage. Started off with one, just made it to two. Got to start somewhere. I'll add my progress, stretching techniques, etc. down the road. I have more rings/weights on order and will head to HD to see if I can find more shackles, right now this is about all I can handle. I'm wearing a silicone sleeve during the day at work. It's a good little stretch, not really sure it does much though? Will post a pic of that later. I also like pumping my balls in my 2" cylinder, that helps like crazy in the short term. If I do that first, I might be able to get 3 shackles on.

The tetanus bacterium is an obligate anaerobe; i.e. it can only exist where there is no oxygen. The shackle might cause a bit of rust staining on your skin but zero chance of tetanus. Enjoy the stretch and if it turns out to be your thing, then maybe them invest in some stainless steel shackles

It must be the pix, because the shackles have never been used and are pretty much, brand new. No rust at all. But I'll keep an eye out. In all honesty, they are too big and have some heft. The ones I see other use are much smaller and arnt D rings like these are. Thats why the first one is wrapped, so it wouldn't fall off.
Thx

Here's what I wear during the day,

Amazon has cheap d shackles for $7.99 for two 6.7oz stainless steel.

Got a 5.5-inch stretch this am in the 2-inch tube, was shooting for 6, but didn't happen. Not warm enough, didn't put enough time in. The problem with doing this, it's almost impossible to keep vacuum.
Was going to see if i could put 3 shackles on but decided to pump balls and cock in globe.
I got a new 2-inch silicone balls stretcher, will try that later. Not sure if it will be any better than the green one above.

Using stainless steel weights is better for long-term stretching versus silicone..

I have some on order, but the silicone ones are pretty much the only thing I can wear while at work. I figure it's better than nothing and might be doing something since I get a good tug.

That's true. Good luck on your stretching.

The rings came in. Two with inside diameter of 38mm. They fit perfect, until I get a real stretch on them, and my sac warms up. Then one ball will slip out. I have a few other on order, a little smaller, so will place the smaller one close to balls. At this point I'm wearing the green silicone sleeve and the rings which works great. About 20 mins later and after my balls stretched, I added the shackle. So slowly but surely, I'm getting a little more stretch. My goal, no shackles so I can wear just the rings sometimes out and about.

Wear the two larger ones, and once warm with a stretch on, put the smaller one between them, and not below them.

Your ball may try to squeeze up through the bigger one, but with the smaller one in the way, it will have nowhere to go.

This will also allow for more room by the balls themselves, rather that squeezing them at that point, whilst still maintaining the full weight of all three rings.

Got another smaller ring which works great as balls dont get pulled through now. The three rings work great, so much more comfortable than the shackles. Had a good stretch with them, then was able to add a shackle cause I'm out of rings. It's a good tug, that's for sure as I can feel the burn, especially when I'm just starting out.

Got another weight, this one's great!

Love stretching it! Also love to wear very big 5-10# hanging from my ball sack after a pump and even with a tube on! Here are a few of mine.

Making progress, two weeks ago I tried this number of rings, no way, hurt like hell. now no issue.
