    I've been busy developing a 3D-Printed chastity device. It's a Prince Albert device similar to the PA-5000, without vents or the annoying splitting issue. I'm currently waiting on a custom proprietary screw, which will have its own key (also 3D printed).

    I love this device so far! It's customisable to the mm and incredibly light so as not to pull on the piercing. I haven't found a way to defeat it. I'm looking at having one printed in translucent medical-grade plastic next.

    Since it's customisable, I'm thinking of selling these and would love to hear your thoughts/suggestions for improvements.

    Looks great to me! Is there any chance you could print them in titanium? I love my Steelwerks device but the screw can be worked loose if I wanted. I just couldn't get it tight again so it's not a big deal.

    This looks like a perfect set up if the screw could set all the way in and flush so there is no way to get at it from the sides.

    Great work!

    Cheers! Yes, they can be printed in titanium, but it's not cheap. Your Steelwerks looks like a Mousetrap I had. It was really easy to work the screw loose by wiggling the piercing pin from side to side. I think I've solved that because this screw goes through - rather than into the base of - the pin. I haven't been able to work it loose and I think a spring washer would certainly prevent this. Flushing the screw might be an idea, just to really keep things mega secure.

    I had no idea that 3d printing could use titanium!
    I need to study that.
    Thx.

    This is just a tiny bit tougher to get loose than the mousetrap but not really. I think your design with a flush screw would be perfect!

    It can, but it's an *insanely* expensive laser sintering process.

    It also seems to produce a fairly rough surface and the one shop I've heard of that performs such 3D printing does not offer a polishing option, unlike other materials. It could be because applying abrasives to titanium can be delicate (titanium dust is very flammable, and the sparks produced when grinding titanium are literally white hot)

    I would be interested. I just got an evotionwearable device and really like it. I think this 3D printed plastic is really the way to go. Do you have any ideas to incorporate this design with the tetherspout?

    What kind of pricing would you be thinking?

    The Evotion device is interesting (I can't believe they pipped me to the 'world's first!') I'd think somewhere around £100, price-wise would be about right. I've been looking at some interesting medical-grade materials which will probably cost a little more but haven't been able to test it yet. I'll run a discount for CM members when launching, so keep your eyes peeled in the next few weeks.

    Well, my test custom security screw arrived today and it all fits together wonderfully.

    I also have a lovely new version of the tube in translucent medical resin with recesed screw. Thanks @corsac !! I'd take a picture, but I'm not allowed to take mine off. :) Three months in a PA device is a record for me.

    Looks great! I bet the screws aren't cheap but I'm sure it would be tougher to unscrew compare to some others.

    I am thinking of getting a PA. I am a real grower and uncut and I think a pa-5000 would be way to loose on average.
    Could you create a ball trap device with a PA option that doesn't start at the bottom and go forward but starts more at the front, goes back then up and out. This way my forskin is in a more natural situation.

    Looking good but with the new screw, rather than the PosiDrive, what prevents you simply grasping the closed part of the "C" with long nosed pliers and simply opening it ?

    @TitaniumChastiTi I'm not sure whether the indentation is deep enough - I'll have to look into that. Having said that, I don't suppose it'd be any different from picking a padlock with hairpins or unscrewing a high security Bryce screw with the end of a melted biro. Props on your titanium device, by the way - looks great!

    You don't produce sparks when you polish Titanium, you can on the first cut, but it simply means you are trying to remove too much material and what does come off is not flammable whilst been worked, fine cuttings from the mechanical saw I use however... can be fun, I know ;)
