    If it is 3D printed do not use them for bongs. Most of those plastics will give you lung cancer. If not a healthy reoccurring dose of microplastics.

        The nature of 3d printing means that printed parts can be prone to layer separation which means that your flared base may become separated after a fierce session.

        Just a warning that 3d printed toys can be very dangerous to anyone thinking of using one, as tempting as it may be.

          Definitely a million reasons to not use a 3D printed buttplug, but as to this point you could print it sideways so the layering is horizontal instead of vertical.

        I saw the sarcasm tag and just want to insert that your butt plug should explicitly say medical grade silicone, or glass or metal.

        If you can smell anything after you wash it out of the box, then it’s releasing compounds as part of it’s manufacturing process and you shouldn’t stick it up your ass

          your butt plug should explicitly say medical grade silicone, or glass or metal.

          I’d also add that some metals are considerably worse than others. I’d especially not recommend lead, arsenic, or mercury buttplugs

            Those ones are great. The shape is fantastic, comfortable for all-day wear, if that’s your thing. Also, their large one is larger than any other metal plug I’ve seen. They’re remarkably hard to find though; searching for NJoy mostly brings up cups, straws, and plastic lids.

      Ok, fair, but you’re still inhaling combustion by-products. That’s not great either.
