ok so i have 2 questions:
1: wat should i do about packing wile swimming? does the packer get messed up when u swim?

2: this is for the guys who own a packer from DJ's. so the STP part comes really long so i tried to shorten is by taking off the spoon and cutting it. the only problem is, the spoon now doesn't fit back on. i have tried so hard to get it back on. any ideas?

I had that same problem with a DJs, and ended up taking an old one from another STP and using it instead. I had put a note on another thread that you should cut them from the tip end so you don't have to take the spoon off, having screwed one up for myself doing that. I only had one like that, others were fine.

The thing I do for packing while swimming is the trusty jock strap under trunks. It holds it just fine, but does make it trickier to pee.

thanks!
but duz swimming with a packer damage it?

I'm wondering the same thing.  I would think that the chlorine in pools may damage or eat away at the tubing, glue or even the packer itself. 

andy: wat STP did u get the spoon from? cuz i cant get the tip of a medicine spoon to fit either.

It was just an old worn out DJs one, same exact one only older. Used the whole tube, spoon and all. Glad I had it, too, otherwise it would have been a total loss. (Or maybe send it back to DJ and see if he can fix it?)

yeah i mite e-mail him and see if he can fix it
