That’s an excellent question. You need to use sandpaper to roughen the material where you want the glue to hold. You also need to tug at the components after they dry to see if there is any movement or give. If there is, paint another layer. It doesn’t take much. But yes, it will tear before coming undone if done correctly basically between the silicone parts and the silicone glue it becomes one piece of silicone. You also have to remember that the amount of pull on any component inside you will not be the same as you exert on it outside. The glued components are not my biggest concern. The hold on the sewn in line is. That’s the place where critical failure can occur so you do need to pull decently hard to make sure it will not come undone in the knot or tear the silicone as you pull. Under normal circumstances only about 2-4 psi is needed to dislodge the stent and pull it out, but if it becomes fully migrated in then bladder it can take 6-8 psi to remove it. You want that assurance the line will pull it out.

Nothing critically new to report. I am still wearing my O-ring anchor stent that I pictured in the other thread. I have only been working on the retrieval line. Current iteration is 18cm with the latter behalf inside a silicone sheath that terminates at a screw cap (1mm id) cut to 4mm length with the line sewn through it and knotted before a layer of silicone glue was applied to seal the knot, bridge the terminus to the silicone sleeve as a continuous piece and round off any sharp edges. When my penis is flaccid it will poke out the end of the penis and is easily reachable. Most of the time it sits in the navicular fossa so it is invisible and generally not noticeable. I am hoping over time it will be become less and less noticeable so that I have the feeling of no line (even though it is there) and the security of safety if my stent migrates. i also found a new comfortable sleeping position. Side sleeping is out as it closes off my urethra. I am not much of a back sleeper so my new comfy position is on my belly with one leg raised and sitting on a pillow. This tipping of the pelvis makes urine flow easier and doesn’t kink the line. Looking forward to a more restful sleep -
https://a.co/d/7x6vICB silicone glue - used to paint the vent holes and make them imperceptible, to paint the retrieval line knot, to paint the tube before folding the ends, to make sure the o-rings don’t move https://a.co/d/3owmQsX larger o-rings that act as anchors https://a.co/d/iQOMYPI smaller o-ring that will be the end of the retrieval line Not seen, a plastic tube in the distal end to keep the fold open, I sealed this with silicone glue as well. 18cm retrieval line that can sit just outside the lips of the penis or pushed into the meatus for stealth and comfort.

Thought I would give an update on my later iteration. 7 cm long stent with 5.5cm between anchors. The anchors are two 3mm id x 6mm od o-rings Stacked next to each other forming ribs. These o-rings cover two 2mm vent holes on both the distal and proximal side. These vents get used during movements that disrupt the seal of the o-rings. Because they are beneath the o-rings they are not felt. My retrieval line goes right up to the lip of my penis where it terminates at another o-ring. This o-ring sometimes sits outside the flaccid penis by 1-2cm or just inside the lips creating the look and feel that I am not wearing anything. I have been opting for the braided fishing line as my retrieval line as it will flush out better than the silicone sheathed line, which means I have less concern about inward migration of the retrieval line. all in all, very comfy. I have not tested it long term in bed. It will drain in my car but not when seated on a hard surface that closes the urethra at the perineum.

This is the tried and true method. Eventually you will stop waking up

My 07-10-2025 retrieval line. 14.5 cm of silicone meeting a 2cm long loop. 3mm o-ring at function and 6mm o-ring as cap -
My meatus is slapping me and calling me stupid… my pony beads were inspired and definitely prevent migration to a point, but getting them past the meatus was a struggle every time, a struggle I assumed was necessary for safety. but as I was experimenting with some silicone o-ring parts (6mm od) it occurred to me what @UsuallyDiapered said about his holy grail set up, (It only protrudes a few millimeters). So I removed the pony beads on previous model and replaced it with the o-rings which I then glued to the surface to be a backup to surface tension. Lo and behold, in addition to entering the meatus more easily it performs in the exact same manner as my pony-bead setup. It might even perform better as instead of being tight in the urethra, this thinner profile should ride along comfortably. My current stent is 6cm long with 5.5cm between the o-rings. I will let you know if there is movement at night.

Three things: one I think that would get picked up by a metal detector or body scanner and that’s something I would like to avoid when living my life. two, I am not sure what the long term effect of magnets would be inside the body. How big would it need to be to overcome drag. three: and this is the big one, two work the magnet would need to be strong, very strong and the pull of sensitive inner things like my urethra getting pinched sounds devastating. all that is to say, I have thought about it. But thank you so much for the idea. I appreciate all input.
