    Hello to all,

    is there anybody who has a looker 2 ordered where the insert is not centered to the device?[​IMG]
    The urethra is not centered in the penis an a better placed insert would improve comfort.

    This is what I am looking for:

    Thanks.

    This looks promising. I'd love to hear from someone who has worn this!

    I hear what you’re saying, but if you look at this picture https://www.chastitymansion.com/for...98865651-cd1f67fbf96668ff5de063d20bcd6187.jpg

    I think it shows that the line of the insert isn’t central at the ring.

    As it’s a custom built product I think it takes account of one’s anatomy.

    I have 2 Looker 2, both with urethral plugs and both are far away from follwoing the urethra in their real position.
    On is with a fixed 8mm plug which I got shortende by the manufacturer, the other with the removable one i shortened myself.
    The image you show is in fact better than standard.
    But if you look to the steelworxx hompage, or when I look wo my devices I can see a ratio of 3/7:4/7 maximum 2/5:3/5.
    The plug always seems to start in the center of the calotte which does also not really matches nature.

    Have you asked the manufacturer whether he'll do this?

    Yes, I have, but no reply yet. It’s now 2 weeks.
    Maybe I have to place an order before he comments on my demands.

    Please keep us posted. :)
    I'm almost ready to order my own looker and your proposal just makes so much sense to me.

    You say you had your plugs shortened: How much and why?

    Well, I have a Looker 2 with a fixed 8mm plug which protruded the A-ring by 20mm. Even if this should prevent pulling out, or better not be able to push back, it didn't work.
    On the other hand I felt a lot of irritation in the urethra when sitting and moving.
    After an episode with a prostate infection I decided to get it shortened.
    Now it ends at the B-ring.
    The other Looker came with 6 & 8mm plugs both with the same length, ending 20mm behind the A-Ring.
    Due to the size of the B-ring and the centered position nights were bad.
    Also the bore was too small.
    I took the 6mm plug, cut it to 30mm and applied a new 6mm thread.
    It serves now as a centering tool for the glans.
    Still not escape proof, but with a suitable tether spout it will be.

    G2F,

    Very, very interesting. It goes along well with what BarbCD had written in an earlier thread.

    It would seem that not only is the insert length and diameter important for long-term wear and comfort, but the "non-centered" customization would help quite a bit as well.

    Please do keep us posted as to how Dietmar replies.

    My looker 02 plug isn't perfectly centred either. My bigger issue has been the screw unscrewing sometimes and ensuring I don't lose the outer screw!!
    But as for the centred issue, it has not been an issue for me. I guess I've adapted to the positioning which is only a slight shift from being central, and we all hang a bit differently naturally anyway!!
    Hope you get it right because it is an excellent device once you get used to it :)

    I agree with @latexbound , it’s not been an issue.

    What is an issue, as he says, is the retaining nut which has an inclination to work loose and drop off never to be seen again! I have been known to be hunting for it in office or on grass ;)

    I did get a couple of spares at quite an expense for a nut so in the end I got a non-steel hex nut that fitted and stays put. I think you could get a stainless steel one (probably 20 to a pack :) ) on the net or at a hardware store.

    This is only a problem in countries which still use INCH sized screws. In Europe you can get stainless steel nuts at reasonable costs at the hardeware store. Also low profile or safety nuts.
    The original knurled nut may be custom made one, so it is expensive.
    BTW Digital Equipment minumum spares prices was 100$ even for a single resistor...... :)
    I use a clamp forceps to tighten the nut, and never lost it.

    Errrrmm - the UK is in Europe and everything like nuts and bolts are metric - except the nuts trapped by a CB of course ;)

    Good idea using clamp forceps to tighten the nut. Lacking your engineering knowledge, I was concerned any grip tools might damage the well engineered surface of the smooth nuts.

    The thread at a Looker 2 is with both sizes of inserts 6mm. The problem is the manufacturing of the thread either in the cupola or the insert itself.
    They must fit together with respect of ending so when fully turned in the direction of the insert should be at its position.
    If the insert is a bit loose, setting the counter nut is difficult.
    You don‘t want to hold the insert with a tool nor with your bare fingers.
    Concerning my engineering skills, I must admit I am an engineer.

    Wow, that's a long delivery time.
    Is he charging extra for the modification?

    Nope, just the standard price.

    I ordered a Steelheart tube with it, to use it with a Thetherspout.

    My idea is, to later add a small stainless steel tube on top of the Steelheart cage which guides a stainless steel spring rod from the locking system to a special nut with a notch.

    When the cage is set into the locking system, the rod will be pushed into the notch of the nut.
    The nut can only be removed, when the rod is not engaged.
    I will add a drawing later.

    After 48 hours and 2 nighs I can say that is really good. With the same size A & B-Ring and a standard insert I felt a lot of pain induced by pressure during nocturnal erections.
    I will return it for exchange of the cupola (48->44 or 46mm) after christmas vacation. This is more an aestetic than a fit issue.
    I wear a barbel with 8mm balls in my frenum piercing hole. Together with the lower smaller distance of the plug to the B-ring it is escape proof.
    When the cage is looked I can't turn the penis to slide it over the constriction. Even with a loose cage it is difficult.
    This is my solution.

    Here it is. The bottom gap between insert and ring is so small, it is not possible to get back after pulled out.

    Can you ware it for long term with the shape of the tube like this?
    It looks perfect?
    How does it compare (how it feels) with the standard tube?
    Are you still locked in this cage? Or did you run in to a better one?
