After my six months of using an extender I am a firm routine down. This is a mention for those starting as well as a comparison to other forum members who use one as well. For me, I started off with 5 or so hours a day and it was sporadic from morning to night. But after I went off to exercise or took a break, the traction mark it was set at was far less length than previously. This was ranging after a couple hours to 10. The reason for this is due to the tendons in the penis responding to the stress of stretching. After I came up with a 15 minute break after every hour segment, the tendon retraction was far less noticeable and a quality stretch was more apparent after reaching the 8 hour mark I divided up the stretch routine into 4 hours for each duration of time wearing it. I divided up the time wearing the stretcher for three reasons, one being a developing a soft glans during erections, another being fatigue which was a cause of soft glans and weak erections, and finally a recovery for better circulation. Before I would go 6 hours and tack on another 2 hours at night, but the two hours weren't good enough for development because as soon as the time was up the stretch length was right where I wanted it by end. Dividing up into two equal time segments allowed enough time for the tendons to relax after an hour and three more hours to play with stretch length with incremental tension changes.
The incremental tension stretched past the comfort zone for the last 15 minutes of the hour before readjustment and rest time of 15 minutes between each 4 hours of wearing it during the night and morning. I fell that incremental changes of wearing the device allows a quality session to train the tendons in dealing with stress and lengthen with less retraction after the 15 minute break. Those who are runners who stretch before a workout do this to prevent injury and increase flexibility. The same goes for these devices stretching the tendons in the penis. It's just something I have developed after over 8 months of using an extender.
What's the verdict for my experience in PE using my own designed extender? It works. I was at nearly 8 inches at start. I gained a 3/4 of an inch. It doesn't seem like much, but it works and jelqing maybe helped sustain girth changes. I doubt 4 more months will give significant length, but maintaining two stable routines. I'm wondering what others experienced and how penis enlargement has been for others. What have you changed? It's been a chore every day, but I kept up with it. It has affected my quality of life readjusting it, choosing to do PE over hanging with friends and uncomfortable. I hope this helps. I'm open to suggestions.
 
Awesome to hear. I'm seriously considering getting an extender myself.

They aren't the most comfortable things to wear. Taking two months off due to weak erections you put your body through stress that you can injure yourself. If you do, do take those breaks, even if you think you can go for that extra half hour. I'm learning the hard way. Maybe my gains would be better had I went the full 8 instead of 6 months, but having a life is important. I'll still continue the full year study. Yeah, I botched 2 months in the mid year, but it was for health reasons. Sometimes you need to take a break. What's odd is I didn't lose my gains, but came back to it with better outlook and endurance, physically.
 
10 inches! Finally 10 inch stretch! I never thought it would be possible after nearly a year. Granted it's not 10 inches in erection length. It's just a stretch limit I did the last 15 minutes of a session early today. Remembering hitting the 8.5 and 9 inch stretch it felt tedious and unlikely. Hitting the 8.5 inch length, it pushed me forward. And I realized 9 inches was possible. I'm not 9 inches yet, but next year it's going to happen. I know it. But reaching a stretch length of 10 inches today boosted my confidence this hell of wearing an uncomfortable contraption for 8 hours a day. Issue is I didn't make the aluminum bars longer than 9 inches on the extender. It means either I I have to make 1 inch extension bars or replace the bars with longer ones for the extender. I don't have a lathe at my disposal anymore. So, I need to figure out how to make the modification before the end of December.
 
What has been your girth gains?
Not very noticeable. I'm still 6 at the edge of the glans. Midshaft is still 6.5 inches. I wish the circumference was equal throughout. If I could have the came as the base that would be great. I will have to introduce clamping January and see where it goes. Certainly, there is more thickness in the length of the shaft. Just towards the head it's seemingly harder to gain, possibly due to the clamp of the device that restricts movement and possibly growth.

If you have tubing the bars can slip-fit into, drill and tap the tubing for set screws. Cut the bars, slip the tubing over each cut end, extend to the required length, and tighten set screws.

Did you also gain in erectionlenght? Or only flaccid stretch lenght?

That is an idea, but there isn't enough clearance to slide it to a new stretch length. I would have to make a center point marker, drill and tap, mKe a cut off set screw and then do the same to each side along with the bar extensions I can then screw right onto the original 1/4 aluminum stock. I may just make brand new bars that are longer and I can just switch them out when I need to. With that I would use the dye to create the same thread size, but I need a stable enough system so it doesn't break the dye or strip the threads from cross threading. Fun!

As for gains, Mr. Brown, I would say it's a half an inch for a year. I was +8 inches length gain to begin with and I'm not 9 inches length yet. A lot of time and discomfort went into this regimen. I was very critical on trial and error. It just feels like a brick wall with ree bars cemented in and there's a row of fat chicks in a store scooter that bottomed out trying to make their way into a Walmart foyer on Black friday. That's what it feels like going through this.

If you post some pictures of your extender, I'd like to brainstorm ideas.

Regarding gains and ROI, I applaud your effort and especially your candid assessment of gains. The guys who think (hope) they can gain two inches in 6 months need to read this.

Yeah, I could use some adjustment with my extender. I thought I had posted about this. A photo is somewhere. I'm starting my routine late and might as well post a pic of the device of reference.

So, the device stops at a 9 inch stretch length with the glans adding the last inch. What I have been doing as of late is clamping a couple inches down the shaft from the glans to increase stretch length and maintain some foreskin coverage so it doesn't rub against clothing and feel uncomfortable. It works fine, no pinching and the black neoprene strip creates enough cushion between the hard plastic and the member.
I either need to add monger bars as an upgrade or make something with a lathe. I usually wear it up against my torso with the swivel clamps pushed sideways. I want to replace the allen screws as the grip has become harder to tighten by hand because it is weathered. It looks clunky, but it's unnoticeable when it clicks into the upright position and stays there. It is hand tightened, no springs, which I find stupid. In the morning the stretch length starts from 8.75 to 9 inches. Then as I go through the day it changes increments when I readjust it to a longer length. These lengths don't stay. I start over the next day at 8.75 and process starts over again. I haven't remeasured since last I posted on this topic, but I will say that it's come to that point I need to modify now.

Don't know why the pic wasn't in the past post, but here it is.
I don't see why you can't cut the rods about an inch or so up from the base. Then get tubing that's a slip fit over the rods. Get more of the rod material, and cut two to whatever additional length you want. Let's say two inches. Then cut the extra tubing two inches longer than that, for the example cut them to four inches. Slip the tubing over the stubs at the base. Slip the two inch pieces inside those tubes. Slip the ends of the cutoff part into the tubes. Done. Some adhesive caulk would hold the parts together sufficiently while still allowing disassembly.

Well enough question. Thing is, tubing would not be a stable enough support, especially the base ring swivals and would bend under the a directional pull. This would be painful, especially with an unclean, and probably jagged bend. Not to mention, with the tubing it is harder to secure one's member through the grip head with a stretch as the neoprene cushion is velcro held and then one would need to stretch while simultaneously tighten two set screws on each side while holding the brace so there is no slippage.
In this, I have two options, replaced the 1/8 inch aluminium bars for longer ones with a threaded end to screw back into the brass swival at the base OR I can add two inch 1/8 bars to the ends for more length. This would require a drill and tap, which comes in the set with the dyes from harbor freight. Center drill, screw in 10-32 threaded rod and easier to transport and take apart in sections rather than really long rods sticking out. Other extenders have these extensions like this, but for a ridiculous $20-30 more option. An aluminium rod 3 feet long costs $5 at a home depot or Lowes even as a jacked up price. Just centering the drill is harder without a lathe. A grounded clamp or vice with a hand held power drill and steady hands are really all I need. I'll go in with a file to make sure it's a flat surface to drill into.

What tubing would you be referring to? The only tubing I can think of is steel with a 1mm thickness which would be pressfit and hard to find for 1/4, not 1/8 as I realized I mentioned. Then there is tent polls which use a three inch long 3/8 aluminium dowel which is press-fit and industrial adhesive used to keep one fiberglass 1/4 inch round stock as an extension. These are both very hard to find and add bulk to the design of a traction device. Best bet is to find a method very streamline at a 1/4 inch thickness so the head piece can slide all the way to the base to put on and then stretch to the full required length for the right tension.
Granted, steel tubing is strong, but it would need to be pressfit or with a threaded assembly, because the pulling motion of the head piece could unhinge the extensions and cause impalement if jostled. With 8-32 threaded steel screw the strength is about 2400-3000lb per tensile strength. The aluminum rod would give out first over the threaded steel.
Tubing is stronger than rod. Especially with rod inside it.

The press fit problem would only apply to the top rods, and is solved by chucking the rods and sanding them to a loose fit. Only one inch would need this treatment.

Grainger has plenty of choices, if they ship to CA:

McMaster-Carr is another source.
Yeah, McMaster-Carr definitely has it in their book. Price point is what itches. I might grab more aluminium and test a set up.
