Dude, one morning I jumped out of bed and began getting ready for work. The time came to take off my rings and those pups ain't going nowhere! I went directly into a panic attack! Since my balls "show" through my jeans I thought I was going to have to call in sick for work! Well, after allowing time for the valium to work, and I was calmer,(just kiddin'), I realized that the problem was my balls were too cold to allow enough space for movement. There was some loose skin, enough to give me a false impression that the rings should easily slide off - but not enough. I held my balls until they warmed up and the skin loosened, I lubed `em up and the rings came right off. I don't panic now when the rings don't want to budge and _I_ want them off. I figure: what goes on has to be able to come off. I used to be like you, too.. thinking that I would not be able to remove the rings and going into a panic... but no more - thank gawd! =:)
Now, if you are wearing your rings and get hit in the balls so hard that they swell up... well... that's a different story. Also, I think it may be best not to ball pump while wearing your rings! hehe (<-best advise I ever gave?)
Our local Tandy Leather Co. sells 1.5", 1.75" and 2" nickle plated rings for $.89 each. So if there is a Tandy store nearby you may wish to give them a try. Or you can order 1.75" nickle plated rings from Dog Rose Leathers: www.bright.net/~bkelly/mainshop.htm - see under "cock and balls" heading. I don't know where you can find stainless steel rings on the net. I like the idea of getting a two piece weighted collar. The one I bought has a inside diameter that is too small and I can't use the dang thing - $125.00 down the drain. I'll stick with rings until I figure out how to measure for a good fit. (A mystery!)
Good Luck!
