    Very cool. So how is it? I mean in terms of comfort, fit, hygiene, unobtrusiveness, etc. Looks like there’s not much of a gap between the ring and cage due to that smaller ring, isn’t that uncomfortable?

      The cage is set at the top of the ring, so the ball gap is pretty large in practice. I find it very comfortable, for sizing the cage I started with the rough dimensions of a standard cherry keeper cage and it worked out pretty well. For the ring I printed a bunch of basic circles to start with, each 1/8th of an inch larger than the last, so I could figure out the minimum to be comfortable long term. Then, once I had the cage done, I basically did trial and error till I got the ball gap to be comfortable. I found making the ring wider than it was tall helped make it more comfortable. It’s basically the largest I would consider unobtrusive, but it also depends on what you’re wearing over it and how you’re wearing it. When I wear it in the house I usually use a strap to keep it tight against my body, but that makes it a bit more obtrusive. Definitely the best for me of all the ones I’ve tried/made so far

      I didn’t sand the cage, just the ring, and I only did a quick half assed pass up to 220 grit. Tbh that’s plenty, for me anyways. I printed the cage at .1mm layer height, so it’s relatively smooth in the first place, and I find it’s fine as my dick doesn’t really move in the cage so the roughness/smoothness doesn’t matter much. For the ring, because your sack moves around a lot more, you notice the texture more.
