I know there are a million packy posts lol but one quick question.  I was thinking of getting the famous Mango $12 packy, size 5 1/2 inches.  Is that one too big?  I like having the feeling of being well endowed, but should I go for the smaller? What do you think?

I have both.  I prefer the 3.5" mainly because the balls are bigger.  If you aim it down you look fairly well endowed.  The 5.5" has very flat, flimsy balls.  I found that it tended to flip around in my shorts because of that.  I prefer to be anatomically correct, with my anatomy aiming in the right direction.  If you go to early2bed.com site they have both pictured side by side so you can see the difference.

For the Mango stp I prefer the 5.5".  Still occasionally has issues moving but the stp tubing helps.  I converted one of my 3.5" into an stp and it's much harder to aim with IMO.

At $12 you could buy both and see which you prefer.

Your mileage may vary.

Ok, so I saw the youtube video posted on here, and I'm sold.  I want to make my own STP, but noticed the travelmateinfo.com website is no longer active.  Anybody have another suggestion for what to use?  Would any form of silicon tubing work?  And is mango products the best ones to use?  I know they've been having some problems recently, and when I went to their website, I can't find a way to order online.  Do I have to wait until after July 7?  Thanks guys.

don't order anything from mango unless you want to wait six months to get it.  you can get the same packy anywhere for the same price.

the 5 1/2 is unrealistic.  no guy is 5.5" soft.

Nothing special about Mango except the receptacle.  If you can use a medicine spoon, you can make a packy.  Any tubing will do; Home Depot sells latex and silicone tubing.  Find the right size to go with your spoon end, a hot screwdriver, and you're good to go.

Also, other places sell the cheapy packys.  I get mine from Early2Bed, but other places sell them as well.

Where would you recommend getting a medical spoon at?  Any medical supply store?  Has anyone found that latex or silicon tubing works better than the other?  I'm not allergic to latex, so that wouldn't be a problem.  Also, I typically wear boxer briefs, and though I've been living as a man for nearly a decade, have never used a packy.  They aren't super tight on me, but aren't as loose as boxer shorts either.  What do you guys use to keep them in place?  I'd rather do without a harness or jockstrap, so if needed I could switch to regular briefs to keep it snug.  I appreciate the help, I can't wait to piss in a urinal!

Medicine spoons are everywhere - pharmacies, grocery stores, Toys R Us.  You have to saw off the end.

If you don't want a harness you  might want tighter fitting boxer briefs or tightie whities to hold the packer in place.  I'm still searching for the perfect STP that will allow me to wear loose boxer briefs.  But I hate a packer that ends up upside down!!

for my medicine spoon I didn't even need to saw off the end. A pair of scissors and it was ready to rock.

Are there different sizes or medicine spoons or are they pretty much one size fits all type thing?  And the tubing, is latex better than silicon or visa versa?  Where would that be in a hardware store?  Plumbing?  haha...I guess that would make sense.
