Slimguy's homemade extender
I don't entirely understand why someone would go to such lengths to reproduce bulky devices such as the JES Extender, PeniStretcher, but if it appeals to you, and you're willing to put in a lot of work, here's one device. In my book, this is another example of more is less.
Fig. 1. This traction device was built out of about $12 US in parts. Similar devices retail for hundred of dollars. Note the small springs near the base.

TOOLS REQUIRED
CONSTRUCTING the HOME HARDWARE EXTENDER Drill two 5/32" holes into the PVC Flush Bushing, opposed from each other, and about 3/4" from the bottom (where the lip extends). If desired, saw off about 3/8" from the top of the PVC Flush Bushing so that there will be more room through which the penis may be pulled and maneuvered. If the PVC Flush Bushing is not round along the inner rim, you should file and sand it so for safety and comfort. The bottom of the base may be lined with foam rubber strips for a greater comfort. Additionally, you may file and sand the PVC Flush Bushing in such a manner as to make a more ergonomic fit.
With a pair of pliers, carefully remove each of the wood screws from each of the pair of Gate Hooks. Saw off the curved ends of the Gate Hooks and file the ends smooth.
Upon each of the 5/32" diameter, 1/2" long Machine Screws, thread a washer, an eye-end of each of the two Gate Hooks, and another washer or two. Carefully screw each assembly through the opposing holes of PVC Flush Bushing. Preferably, no metal should protrude through the either side of the bushing. Each Screw-Turnbuckle assembly should be firmly in place, with the turnbuckles perpendicular to the PVC Flush Bushing.
Saw the 2" PVC Coupling latitudinally so that the length measures about 1 3/4"; then saw it longitudinally so that a "half pipe" results. Drill 2 5/32" holes into the half pipe on opposite sides, each about 1/2" from the rounded base, and 3/8 from the sides.
Drill two 1/4" holes about 3/8" apart (measured between radii) and 1/2" from the top of the half- pipe. Through these holes will the rubber or latex tubing be threaded. Sand the half pipe round and smooth. You may saw the top corners of half pipe for a more ergonomic design (as in Figure 1), but be careful not to compromise structural integrity.
Thread a Wing Nut and a large metal washer onto each of the 2 3/4" Machine Screws and then drive the resulting 2 assemblies into each of the 5/32" holes in the half pipe.
Place a small metal washer and a small spring onto each of the perpendicular Gate Hooks, and then drop each of the Turnbuckles (sans eye hook). The fit should be smooth. If not add or subtract washers from the Gate Hook assemblies.
Thread the Latex Tubing through the 1/4" holes in the half pipe. Due to the tightness, you may need to pinch the tip of the Tubing. The Tubing should be held firmly by the holes, but you may use a large metal paper binder clip for added stability.
MEASURING THE TENSION
Thread the two 1/4" holes in the Home Hardware Extender with string and then thread the tail of the remaining string through the Flush Bushing assembly. Tie the string to carefully measured weights of 0.6 kg (1.3 lbs.), 0.9 kg (2.0 lbs.), 1.2 kg (2.6 lbs.), or 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs.). Plastic water bottles make good weights (1 pint = 1 pound, 500 ml = 0.5 kg, etc.). Hold the Home Hardware Extender with one hand, and with the other, a ruler to measure the depression of the springs. Carefully measure and note the length of the springs for each of the remaining weights.
For example, the 2 springs on the example in Fig. 1 (each 5/8" long, and 0.020" gauge) depress to a length of about 1/2" with 1.3 lbs. (0.6kg), 3/8" with 2.2 lbs. (1.0kg), and 1/4" with 3.3 pounds (1.5 kg). You may mark in ink or crayon the results for each weight on the gatehook.
Over time, you may need to extend the device, and therefore the penis, by twisting the turnbuckles further in order to obtain the same tension. This is due to extension and/or growth of the penis.
USING THE HOME HARDWARE EXTENDER
With the device in two parts (Bushing/Turnbuckle and Half-Pipe/Tubing), pull the penis through the PVC Bushing, with the Turnbuckles at their minimum length. Then loop the penis head through the tubing and tighten by pulling from the other side. Carefully, pull the Half-Pipe/Tubing assembly until the Turnbuckle hooks can be attached and screwed tight to the Machine Screws in the Half- Pipe. This procedure takes about 1-3 minutes. Tension is increased or decreased by twisting the turnbuckles. You may use a large metal paper binder clip to hold the rubber tubing protruding from the back side of the Half-Pipe in place.
It is recommended that you wrap the glans and coronal groove of the penis in about 20 cm (8") of sterile Surgical Gauze for comfort, to reduce the chance of pinching where PVC and Tubing meet, to avoid sticking of tubing to sensitive skin after long stretch sessions, and for hygiene.
During the first 2-3 weeks of your traction regimen, initial tension should be no less than 0.6 kg (1.3 lb.) and no more than 0.9 kg (2.0 lbs.); time in traction should start at 4 to 6 hours per day. After the regimen of the first 2-3 weeks, increase the tension to between 0.9 kg and 1.2 kg; daily use should increase to 8-12 hours. You should wear the device for 10-12 hours per day for 3-6 months to gain acceptable results.
Fig. 6. The "Home Hardware Extender" when worn. Note the sterile gauze rolled around the head of the penis, and the metal paper binder clip (underneath the PVC "half-shell") holding the tubing in place.
Check the color and temperature and feeling of the glans periodically. If it turns blue or cold or numb remove the device immediately, wait 10 minutes and reattach, making sure that the fit is not as snug, or the extension not as severe. If the noose is attached correctly, erections should not pose any problem, since as the penis grows, the pull will lessen, and the Latex tubing will expand when the head swells. Sometimes the penis will slip out of the Extender, but given correct placement of the Gauze this should not pose a danger.
As with other "Extenders," if traction is more than about 1.0 kg (2.2 lbs.) of pull or more, the device should be worn continuously for no more than about 2 hours, with 10-15 minute breaks between sessions. Trimming the pubic hair to prevent snagging in the base-plate assembly is also recommended. For many users, including the author, 1 to 1.5 hour sessions are more comfortable, if less convenient.
If wearing the device for over 2 hours (or overnight), exercise EXTREME CAUTION. Do not use more than 0.6 kg (1.3 lb.) of pull, and adjust the Surgical Tubing so it is as loose as possible without the glans slipping out. Gently exercise the penis immediately after use. Involuntary detachment while sleeping may occur, but this should not be dangerous.
Hot compresses (towels soaked in hot water and wrung dry) may alleviate some of the discomfort encountered while wearing an Extender-Type Device, as might directly inserting the penis into warm water. This can be done before, during, after, or between traction sessions. Such "heat therapy treatment" will not only feel pleasant, it will also increase the flow of blood to ligaments, nerves, tendons, and the small amount of muscle tissue in the penis. Some studies have even suggested that heat can increase the rate of tissue distraction.
APPENDIX A
Notes from the Author
I have used both the "Home Hardware Extender" and the "PeniStretcher." There is little difference in feeling upon the penis between the two. The PeniStretcher is lighter, smaller, has more precision machined parts, and is a bit more comfortable where the head of the penis is attached. The "Home Hardware Extender" is actually easier to attach to the penis (the "PeniStretcher" often requires three hands!), and is a bit more comfortable at the base where the device rests against the pubic bone (the "PeniStretcher" often tears pubic hairs and crimps tissue from the scrotal sac). Both devices can be worn continuously and comfortably for at least 2 hours if the stretch is not too severe. I wrap the head of my penis with surgical gauze before wearing either device for added comfort. I also use hand lotion to reduce the discomfort of having the skin being snagged or pinched. I have worn the PeniStretcher when sleeping with no ill effects. Urination when in traction is awkward, but not insurmountable. I have never experienced any bruises, bleeding, serious pain, or erectile difficulties that I could attribute to the use of either device.
Erections were not adversely affected, indeed they often became harder (and of course longer) than ever experienced before. Whether this is due to the placebo effect, experimental bias, or the effects of actual tissue distraction or stretching of suspensory ligaments is unknown.
CONCLUSION: The gains may be valid, but extensive TIME must be devoted to achieve measurable, much less acceptable, results. It is unknown whether the rate will increase or decrease over time, or whether the results will even be permanent. I encourage others to improve upon the ergonomics of my device.
Foam pipe insulation ('Shafter')
This device is cheap and comfortable, and easy to remove. However, it is conspicuous and can cut off circulation if you're not careful. I got the biggest scare of my P.E. career when I added light weights to this device and left it on for a while.
You'll need soft water pipe insulation, which costs around US$1- for six feet (2m).

-
Wrap around penis, with seam on top; secure base tightly with a rubber band
-
Cut insulation to maximum length of stretched shaft (dead stretch)
-
Stretch penis and secure end with rubber band
-
It will stick straight out. To avoid this, add a small amount of weight - but check frequently!

THIS IS NOT MY ARTICLE, AND I DON'T NECESSARILY RECOMMEND IT. IT'S HERE FOR YOUR REFERENCE AND INTEREST ONLY. (I don't claim to know everything!)
-Tom Hubbard
Without getting into the boring, mind-boggling, and downright irrelevant intricacies of penile anatomy, let me first tell you that penis enlargement is absolutely possible. The penis is composed entirely of soft tissues. These tissues include smooth muscle, vascular, nerve, skin, and erectile tissues. The fact that the penis is so complex and that it is so diverse in its composition necessitates that safety be of utmost importance, with proper technique being secondary. I have attempted some of the other methods on the Internet today, including vacuum pumping, Arabic Jelq, and herbal 'potions' and in my honest opinion, none come close to comparing with my experience with weights. My belief is that weights are the only practical means of enlarging your penis. Several advancements in surgery are making it possible for you to enlarge your penis today, but they remain largely untested and are as of yet very unsafe and risky.
This first technique which you apply is the most important and effective thing you can possibly do. It's also the simplest. Based on my own personal experience, I can say that I have gained at least 1.25 inches from this type of stretching alone. However, you must follow my guidelines in order to obtain a proper stretch. The penis, like any other tissue of the body, responds to different stimuli in different ways. The first type of stretching any man should do is light, long-term stretching. (I'll explain this a little further on). Starting with every other day, apply a light stretch using a device or some kind of weight - I recommend a comfortable shaft-weight - for about one hour long sessions. After two weeks, increase the duration to two hours. After another two week, increase it to three hours. After six weeks, increase the time period to a maximum of four hours straight. Remember all along to use a light amount of weight, something less than five pounds. This type of light stretching builds length more than girth. Do not concern yourself over that myth that with increased length comes decreased width. That is a lie! Trust me! I would not lie to you concerning such a delicate issue. After about two months of stretching with light weights, you should notice a considerable increase in length and perhaps some increases in girth. I, for instance, noticed approximately a 1.25 inch increase in length and less than a 0.25 inch increase in girth after this two month, preliminary period.
The next technique to learn is heavy weights and their application. Heavy weights build girth as well as length, but they build much more width than the lighter training methods. The only problem with going straight into heavy weights, as I have read from various responses to my program, is that their is a noticeable diminution in gains after a period of a few months or so, something which does not typically occur with light weights. This phenomena can be explained quite simply. Lighter weights for longer of periods of time apply a light, constant tension to the penis which gradually stretches it outwards, away from the body. Some of the increased length may be due to the one or two inches of erectile tissue already located within your body, on the inside wall of the abdomen. The rest may occur from some cellular growth, although stretching does NOT stimulate cells to divide. That is yet another myth.
Heavy weights, on the other hand, apply a much stronger load in a shorter period of time. The stress of having too hold five or more pounds causes the penis to become stronger. As it does so, the penis grows in girth and in length to accommodate the extra weight it is forced to hold. The only problem with this is that over time, the penis becomes 'too' strong, so much so that the amount of weight necessary to achieve any gains reaches a level of impracticality. In following my guidelines, you can achieve a larger amount of length before you even encounter this 'heavy weight barrier.'
After your period of light weights has been successfully completed, it is now time to move on to heavy weight techniques. In order to apply heavy weights in the beginning, you must exercise about one hour, every other day: in total, a period of three to four weeks. By hanging for ten minutes and then resting for five minutes, the total amount of time needed for a heavy weight session is about an hour and an half. For the first two weeks, keep the weights between five and seven pounds. After two weeks, you may wish to go higher to eight or to ten pounds. After this period of heavy weights, you'll notice a dramatic increase in girth as well as some increase in length. For instance, my measurements increased approximately 0.5 an inch in length and more than 0.75 inches in girth!!!
Following my routine, you should achieve noticeable gains within a period of a couple months. Here is just a little information on my results:
Starting Measurements:
Flaccid Length: 4.25 inches Flaccid Girth: 4 inches Erect Length: 5.75 inches Erect Girth: 5.5 inches
After Light Weight Period:
Flaccid Length: 5 inches Flaccid Girth: 4 inches Erect Length: 7 inches Erect Girth: 5.75 inches
After Heavy Weight Period:
Flaccid Length: 5.5 inches Flaccid Girth: 4.75 inches Erect Length: 7.5 inches Erect Girth: 6.5 inches

Here's yet another version of milking with some other stuff thrown in. My notes:
-
The first exercise is simply Kegels
-
see my warnings about vacuum pumping. Don't waste your time.
-
The third exercise is interesting, and not mentioned elsewhere on this site
Lets start off with a reminder. When you requested this information you signed a form that told you to seek a Doctors opinion before using this program. It is recommended that you allow a Medical Doctor to examine this information, that you explain your desire and intent to him, and that you get a complete physical to make sure you have no medical problems. No guarantees are made by the author or seller of this information. THESE PROCEDURES ARE USED AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ARE PROVIDED AS GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY! O.K., lets get to the meat of it.
To enlarge your penis and make permanent increases in it will require you to under take a program that will take 40 minutes a day in the beginning and 3 hours a day at the advanced level. You will notice some discomfort while undergoing this program. There are five separate techniques used in this program.
1. Exercises.
First exercise. As you urinate, repeatedly squeeze the muscles that stop the flow of urine. At first you may only be able to stop the flow for a second or two, but, keep at it until you can stop the flow as long as you want. Then allow the flow to start again, after it has started, stop it again. Each time try to stop it as forcefully as you can. You will want to repeat this procedure as many times as possible throughout the day. This will help to strengthen the muscles involved in ejaculating, making your ejaculations much more forceful. You will also find that when erect performing this squeezing will cause your penis to jerk upwards (this can be pleasing to your partner). Finally this will help maintain a hard erection by limiting the out flow of blood from the penis during arousal.
Second exercise. While maintaining an erection place some weight on the end of your penis. In the beginning it may be a towel hung from your penis. You may want to use heavier weights as your muscles controlling your penis become stronger. You can tie a slip not in a shoe string, loop it around the head of your penis, and tie a weight to the other end. The objective here is to gain control over the movement of your penis. Try to make your penis stand higher, and move from side to side. Again at first there may be little movement but with practice you can get a fair amount of movement and control. Try to vary the amount of time you keep your penis in its altered position. This will again provide you with a stronger erection, more control over it and will help to limit the out flow of blood during an erection.
Third exercise. This can be done any time anywhere, though I would start in front of a mirror to monitor my success. You can be erect or flaccid while doing this exercise. It may be easier to see the what's happening in the beginning if you are hot, allowing your testicles to hang low. You will want to try to raise your testicles, using your groin muscles, to the base of your penis, then let the fall to the normal position. Do this quickly and about 100 repetitions 3-5 times a day. Once your accomplished at this exercise you could even do it sitting on the edge of your chair at work. This again is strengthening the muscles involved in erection, causing more blood to flow to your groin to supply the larger, more powerful muscles.
2. Hot compress.
The hot compress is nothing more than a wash cloth, soaked with very warm bath water, wrapped around the shaft until it starts to cool. It is the replaced with another. This process can be performed on a flaccid or erect penis. The goal here is to draw blood to this area, increasing blood flow and making the skin slightly elastic. Be careful not to use water to hot or you could burn some very delicate tissue.
3. Milking your penis.
For this process you will need a lubricant, hand cream or mineral oil, etc. Spread the lubricant over your hands and penis. Place one hand palm down, so that your thumb and forefinger are at the root of your penis, encircle your penis with your thumb and forefinger, squeeze your penis firmly and pull your hand down and away from your groin. As the first hand moves away place your other hand in the same position and follow the first hands path. During this process your penis must be limp. If you get an erection, you may either stop and let it go down or continue until ejaculation, after which you may begin the process again. This may cause your penis to become somewhat sore so start with a light amount of pressure and slowly increase it to a firm hard pressure after a few days.
4. The penis pump.
Available by mail order from a number of sources, or you can build your own. Your penis is inserted into the pump, and then you activate the pump. Do not attempt masturbation with the pump, just let it do its job. It is important that you not alter the pump as you can cause blood vessels to rupture from excessive vacuum. Your penis could also become malformed if to much vacuum is applied or maintained for an extended period of time. One of the men who participated in my study went to sleep while using an electric home made pump every night for a week, the result was a mild deformation, when he urinates it is more of a spray than a steady stream. Used correctly these devices are generally safe. If you would like to build your own pump I can provide you with a material list and general directions for a small fee, E- mail me for more info.
5. The stretch
The stretch, as it's name implies involves physically pulling on the penis. This can be accomplished by a number of means. you can loop a string over the end of your penis, tie a weight to the other end and let it pull your penis. You can use a string tied to a balloon. You can cut the end of the balloon off, stretch the balloon over the head of your penis then tie a weight to it. This is a much more comfortable method. You can use a hose clamp, though I found that this can be painful if the skin gets pinched in the mechanism. Velcro is another option. Or you can buy a device to stretch your penis. You don't need a lot of weight, just enough to put gentle tension on your penis.
OKAY! Now that you know the five techniques it is time to discuss how to use them collectively. You don't have to use all of the above techniques to achieve growth. For instance you can do none of the exercises and still achieve some increases, however, your erection may not be as hard, your ejaculations may be weaker, etc. For best results you should use all of the listed techniques.
You can break this program up and do part of it in the morning and part in the evening. If this is what you intend to do you should always start and end each session with the hot compress. To make it of any value you must be prepared to spend at least 30 minutes during each session, and an hour is much better.
Example 1: You are just starting the program.
Start with the following for about a week, and if you experience no discomfort gradually add more time.
Hot compress - 10 min 1.
Milking - 10 min 2.
Pump - 5 min. 3.
Hot compress and Stretch - 15 min. 4.
Example 2: For advanced users.
Hot compress - 15 min. 1.
Milking - 30 min. 2.
Hot compress and Stretch - 15 min. 3.
The Pump - 30 min 4.
Stretch - 30 min. 5.
Milking - 30 min.6.
Hot compress and Stretch - 30 min.7.
Example 3: The split routine.
AM routine
Hot compress -15 min 1. Milking - 30 min 2. Hot compress and Stretch - 15 min 3.
PM routine
Hot compress- 15 min. 1. The Pump - 30 min 2. Hot compress and Stretch - 15 min. 3. Milking - 15 min 4. Hot compress and Stretch - 15 min. 5.
Please note that in all of the above examples I left out the exercises. This was not an error, the exercises may be done totally separate from the rest of the program. It might be difficult to hold your piss all day to wait for the program. You may want to do some of your exercises in front of your partner prior to sex. For example "Look what I can do with my nuts" or "My cock is twitching for you" as you do your exercise.
All of the preceding examples will produce results, some more or faster than others. So now you know the techniques which have worked for me as well as many others. It does take time, as you can see much of your 'free' time will have.
