The whole pumping thing intrigues me more and more; maybe just for use as a device for resisting turtling, maybe for i will get into it as a main exercise.
But, I'm really starting to want to try it. It seems like it would actually be pretty enjoyable too. I may even get a vacuuhanger in addition to a pump.

But this question goes to Poco or anyone else who pumps: What kind of pump should I get, and about how much do they cost?

MD Premium Penis Pump Set

This is the first one I found, is this the right thing to buy, or are there other things I should take into account?

oops, just found another aspect to ponder: should i get the 2" diameter, or the 2.25" diameter tube? is there any disadvantage to the bigger one?

From what I have read up on the pumps and the fact I do have one and have tested it out one time to just see how it is, I can tell you that the size does actually matter. You are suppose to measure your width once you have an erection and then find out which one is right for your size. Here is a link to the site that I got mine at, this link is for the chart. The price on the one you have found is better then the site I got mine at so I would stick with buying that one plus mine doesn't have the gage which I have found out is very important.

It fully explains how to pick the right size on there. Beyond that I don't have any more info for you as I am still knew to all this and I won't be really using my pump for about another month. I am just not at that stage yet.

I ordered it. I got the exact one that I mentioned earlier in this thread. I'll keep you all posted. I should get it next week.

beaver: Good luck with your pump. Maybe in a few months you'll be our resident pumping in expert.

Yeah, we'll see. I'm kind of excited. I really liked clamping because of that great overall expansion, but little variations in wrapping and in clicks and whatnot made it so the pressure inside was never really measured. Another thing that's been starting to fizzle my clamp-o-mania is that even when i wrap well I've been getting sore at the base where the clamp sits; so I've been backing off a bit to let small areas heal instead of because my over all tissues are worked the right amount.

So pumping seems like a good alternative, because I expect it'll be easier on the base and I can actually measure the pressure. I think I'm going to emulate the those programs where you're doing a little bit of everything.
