Testing the Lori's Tube

Usually when I'm wearing a chastity device I don't really want to come. The last couple of days were different - I really needed to come so I tried my best.

I have to say, my Lori's Tube is really good at preventing male orgasm. There just isn't any way around it.

I can get some stimulation from moving the entire cage but that is concentrated at the base of my penis. That is not enough stimulation. Not even close.

With some devices you can get enough movement inside the tube to come. Not with this one. It is too tight. Plus there are the spikes. I couldn't get any stimulation inside the cage at all.

I tried multiple times over two days but I could not get any satisfaction at all. It was very frustrating.

Fixing my Lori's Tube

It seemed like no matter what I did the bottom spikes in my Lori's tube rubbed through my skin. I finally decided that the problem was not in how smooth the spikes are. The problem is where they are. They were in a small ring leading into the cage. This is the smallest part so the spikes are always in contact with the same patch of skin.

So I gave up on them and files them smooth. It seems to have worked. After a week there is no sign of any irritation.

Many Models

Ok, just two models but in less than a week.

First Briella Jaden (aka Ashley Brooke) contacted me to say that she was making a swing through Ohio before moving to Florida. I love photographing her. Get out a camera and she just oozes sexuality. I had scheduled to shoot her earlier but she got caught in traffic and we didn't have time.

Then Amaya Solace let me know that she was passing through again. I just shot her a few weeks ago but she is a lovely model, also.

So I managed to fit them both in. One last Friday and one today.

Briella isn't hard to schedule but you have to allow a little extra time in case she's late. She has been late to four out of four shoots. The first time she underestimated the drive time. The second time she thought that we scheduled it for 2:30 instead of 2:00. The third time was when she got caught in traffic and was 2 1/2 hours late for a three hour shoot. This time her GPS broke and they couldn't find the place. I had to go fetch them.

But it was worth it. She's not only sexy, she's also flexible. At one point I put cuffs on her wrists and elbows and padlocked them together. No problem. I asked a few times about the strain from having her elbows so close. Not only was she fine, she told me about managing a reverse prayer.

I spent some time shooting in the garage. The next door neighbors weren't home and I had some cloth I could have taped over the window if I had needed it. Partway into the shoot the sun came out and shone through a southern window onto Briella. This was perfect lighting. When I looked over those pictures later I just stopped and smiled for a couple of minutes it came out so perfectly.

One successful shoot down. But what to do next? Especially since both women have very thin, athletic builds.

Things were a little more complicated with Amaya. The date and time changed a couple of times. She is in demand and had a little trouble working everyone in. She is also using a rental car and asked for an advance to help with that. And she asked if I would chip in on a hotel room if she got a suite. She finally got into town and gave me final directions at 3 am. And she made a typo in her phone number (this wasn't a problem since I still had the correct number from the last time she was here).

The suite saved me a two hour round trip and gave me some different backdrops so it was worth it.

Amaya isn't as flexible as Briella but she's still a great model to work with. I'm doing glamor bondage and I seldom gag the model - partly because I want them to look as lovely as possible and partly because I like talking with them.

So part-way through the shoot I realized that I had a really pretty, naked woman tied to a chair and we were talking about food-blogging.

I had some more luck with the sun. The room had a southern window and the sun came out so I asked Amaya to move over into the natural light. She's actually a little shy and didn't want to stand directly in front of the window even though no one could have seen into the room with the sun shining directly on the window (assuming someone was looking from the vacant lot the window overlooked). Anyway, she stood off to the side a bit. This worked quite well. There were some heavy shadows so I got some pictures of the light and shadows playing across her body.

She is also a little shy about nudity. She kept her legs together and, whenever possible, had a leg obscuring her crotch. When I had her sit for the chair tie she crossed her legs so I tied them that way. I think that it made her more comfortable. Personally I have always been turned off by the "spread your legs for your closeup" school of photography so I was fine with this.

So now I have over 800 new pictures of a couple of really sexy models.

Modifications

After a few tried with the Lori's Tube, I kept getting sores from the lower spikes. These were still the original length so I sanded them down. That seemed to help a lot. After five days there was some redness but no bleeding or open wounds. I may have to take a little more off but for now I am trying it for a few days at a time to see if my skin will toughen.

Otherwise the device continues to be fairly comfortable. There is a little burning from the ring during morning erections. This is solved by using the bathroom. Some skin comes out between the bars and can get pinched. Also, the end of my penis can get pushed against the end of the device and rub against my underwear. This can be painful.

These are minor points. Most of the time it is very comfortable. It is easy to forget I am wearing it. While I am often aware of it, I have gotten so used to it that I am just as aware of its lack when I am not wearing it.

Rough Spot

I spent a week in my Lori's tube. Three of those days were with it swinging free under a kilt. I was ready to go for two weeks until I took it off.

I hadn't realized it but the bottom spikes had rubbed my skin raw. Taking the tube off was enough to make it bleed.

So, I stayed out of it for a couple days until my skin healed. I'll be out of town over the weekend so I probably will take it off until I'm back.

It is possible that the rawness came from wearing it with the kilt and that this will not happen as long as it is supported. Time will tell.

Back in the Lori's Tube

I got my Lori's Tube back Thursday. They seem to have fixed the problem with the security screw loosening. There is no play between the cage and the ring. I have worn it most of the time since then with a long break Saturday so that I could go to the state fair (metal detectors).

I also visited a celtic festival in a kilt. This was a pleasant experience. The tube doesn't need support and is quite comfortable hanging loose.

Otherwise - a lot of the time I forget that it is on. The main part that I feel is the testes ring, especially in an erection. Not that I can get any sort of erection. The cage is a tight fit. When I get excited the ring feels tight, sometimes it seems to burn because of the tiny pinches of skin around it. I start to be aware of the many spikes.

To recap the design, the device is in three parts. Besides the ring, the cage is in two parts which are hinged together. There are some blunt spikes at the top of the ring. There is a hole in the cage that my penis goes through and there are two spikes at the bottom of that. The hinged part of the cage has eight spikes and closes over my penis once it is through the hole. The security screw joins all of it together.

The device is very secure. The main purpose of all of those spikes is to hold the skin. If I pulled out I would leave a lot of skin behind. I can press down on the skin under the points on the testes ring but that pushes my penis onto the bottom points of the cage ring. And there is no way to get the skin around all of the points in the cage.

Cutting it off would be very difficult and would probably lead to injury. The screw is recessed and there is a lot of metal surrounding it. I shortened some of the spikes myself and was amazed at how hard the steel is. It is a lot tougher than mild steel. A cutting wheel would heat the metal and burn me long before it got very far. It would take hours or days of quick cuts and cooling to get through. Water might help cool it but burns are likely.

It might be possible to get the screw out with a screw extractor. The problem there is that if it didn't work it would probably ruin the screw head and make removal impossible.

Before this morning I didn't have any trouble wearing it but today's morning erection pushed me into the spikes on top of the testes ring and left me tender.

Problems

I had to send my Lori's tube back for adjustment. There was just a little play between the testes ring and the cage. Over time the cage would move back and forth - not much but just enough to work the security screw out. After a day the cage would be loose enough to rattle around. If I let it go any longer I could have removed the screw by hand. Also, it seemed to be getting worse.

So back it went.

The biggest problem was with the Post Office. My local branch seems to have stopped carrying the small-size box that I needed. I had to go to the main branch.

It's been a bit over a week since I sent it and Lori said that they were backed up so it will be at least another week before it is sent back.
