If it works, it will save me $100 on buying the BIB. I think the wrap prevents a lot of the slipping.
Here's my opinion on how to save money:
The safest way to do save money is to use a muzzle hanger as Millia suggested (or a captain's wench). Once you move into the heavier weight (20lbs+), something like the Bib Hanger is best, to keep progressing safely (and without injury).

Thanks Blink. I think I will continue using the sock hanger until I reach 10 lbs to make sure I can handle hanging at heavier weights. If I still like hanging at that point, I will order the Bib.

I am cut, but I also just started with the Sock Hanger and had serious slipping problems. I recently read in one of the "making a hanger" threads that a member was using a cable clamp over wrapping. Today, I wrapped my shaft with self sticking ACE type bandage, placed the sock fold over the wrap, and tightened the clamp over the sock fold. I hung 7.5 lbs for 20 minutes. Other than a slight doughnut, no problems. My NBP flaccid stretched length is less than 5" so I don't have much to work with so I think there was slight slippage forcing my remaining foreskin to pucker under pressure. Next time I will try to clamp closer to the base of my shaft which should prevent the doughnut. If it works, it will save me $100 on buying the BIB. I think the wrap prevents a lot of the slipping.

Thanks! I will go look for some cable clamps at walmart or the hardware store and also look for some therabands or Ace bandages. Thanks!

I think that's a good approach until you are sure you want to hang.

At least based on reports from guys I've read, I think you'll find the muzzle hanger or captains wench more comfortable than the sock hanger. However, if that's what you want, go for it :D

what angle should a beginner like me start at? this is my first day of hanging with a captains wench with 2.5lbs and im uncut. Should I hang while standing Straight down or hang sitting down on a chair and letting the hanger just hang straight down or is that BTC? Im starting slow with just 2 10min sets to get used to my wrapping and hanging and all them will add more longer sets as i get better at this. I feel a good stretch at the top of the base of my penis right now as i sit down and type this letting the hanger hang down between my cheeks. any feedback is greatly appreciated. thanks

SD or BTC is good for starting out. Whether you're sitting or standing is just a matter of preference. I always sit while I hang, but if you would rather stand, that's fine too.

Thanks blink2000!

Since your the expert on hanging, what would be a great "beginner" hanging routine with angles that you would recommend? I've i remember correctly, my LOT was at 6 o'clock...THanks!

Just make sure your ligs are maximized with SD / BTC first. That's always true regardless of things like "LOT" (i.e. so LOT 9 or LOT 6, it doesn't matter, you should start with a low angle). After that do whatever angle you like (OTS might be good for you). If gains stall at one angle you can always try another angle. Eventually move on to fulcrums.

today i hung for 2x20 min sets with a 10 min warm up before, 10min warm up between sets, and 10 min warm down after wards.

Not feeling any fatigue that much as my 1st day. should i go up in weight or stay the same and just add more sets?

I think you answered your own question... no fatigue = more weight required.

Alright, because that's what I've been doing. Just wanted to make it it was a legit way to hang :D

And it sure does produce a good stretching sensation, especially when you bring your legs straight out so that you're lying with your dick hanging down between your legs.

Having used both a sock and muzzle hanger, i definitely agree with that.

The sock hanger was a nightmare. Pain, slippage, difficulty setting up. However, I'm hanging 15lbs with the muzzle hanger in perfect comfort - so comfortable in fact, that I've fallen asleep whilst hanging.

I wrap using a strip of fluffy, flock material next to my skin, over-wrapped with self adhesive bandage.

The only problems i experience are occasional bruising to my foreskin, but this fades within a day or so.

I'd love to get some input on whether to continue taking collagen supps while performing my routine. I only do Manual excersises and I'm going for legnth, but if collgen is providing the opposite then I'd like to know asap. So far my penis has felt "stretchier" but for some reason I'm not really getting a nice long stretch??

is anybody UNCUT and using the VacExtender?

Hi
i am new to PE (only thing i do is use my Bathmate Goliath, and i do some random stretching, Jelqing and Kegel's whenever i remember/want to)
i have the Sizegenetics (Jes Extender) but found it too uncomfortable to use so i got the Modified VacExtender - Silver Kit (still waiting for it to come in the mail)

but when that gets here i want to use it as a hanger (NO MORE then 2kg's MAX = 4.41Lbs. . for hanging 7+kg scares me a little :p) for when i'm at work and use the extender at home and on my "days off" (as it would be a good "light weight" type of thing)

so could someone (who is UNCUT and using one) please give me advice on how to "set it up" for use with the extender and as a hanger
like some pic's or a simple video please.

and please I've read the post about not to do it if your a beginner but i do feel like my dick can handle a sh*t load as I've treated it pretty bad as a kid :-(
(e.g i would twist it around and around as many times as i could then bend it in every way possible, i would smack it as hard as i could against anything that was tall enough, i pissed on an electric fence (by accident) haha that was a funny painful day, and the list goes on and on)
in a way i enjoy BDSM, so i know for sure "it" can handle lots

and if it helps my size is 8 x 5.5
its more like 8.2 or something but i like to keep it simple so its 8

thanks and sorry for dragging this on

I'm not sure if it matters that you're uncut. Let us know if you have any specific problems we can address (e.g. are you having slippage issues, blistering, or other problems).
