MGX mod - how much of the tail to cut off?

Just cut off the curly bit where it begins to bend into the coil. A pair of wire cutters will do the job neatly but you should then sand back the sharp edge that results so that it doesn't dig into you.

All up it will take no more than about two minutes - very easy.

Good Luck!

I would make it 1.5 inches long and as Pommie said curl the end back. There is a picture somewhere in the forum. i also trimmed the p tab so it has the same profile as the helix, but that is another matter. So the tail sticks out just less than 1 inch. To do this you will need to heat the plastic to about 160 Celsius. Don't use flame, a heat gun is okay, a hair dry is not hot enough to erase the plastic's memory. All mine have been docked like this and I sleep easy with no snagging.

I don't see why one would not just cut the entire tail off, as the only function it serves is a handle. I have cut off my entire tail from my Helix and MGX, so that they are just they just look like this:

J

With the top of the J being the area that it hits the prostate, and the curl being the P-tab.

@wontquit,

The reason for leaving an inch or so on the tail is that it provides steering and ensures that the tool is directed forwards into your prostate. That part of the tail is required so that it lies between your butt cheeks. Without it, the tool could move from side to side inside you.

Agree with Pommie. Best to approach this, "piecemeal" so that you don't wind up paying for a new toy.

Everyone's different - I have a large prostate. I find Helix-classic to need the most "steering," probably due to its narrowing in the lower body. It's p-tab also presses harder on my Perineum and seems vulnerable to slipping into the 'roadside ditch'. So, my Helix is "intact." OTOH my SGX and Max only have a nub to increase penetration and comfort when sitting.

In contrast MGX is more generous in lower body bulk so it's upper body ridge tends to stay well centered on my prostate.

Undertake mods so that you do not create an irreversible situation.

I don't have a MGX, but here are a couple images I took a while back of my tailsnips on my Helix Syn and Classic Eupho.

looks good.. thnx guys

I find the little curl helpful in exercising the sphincters and there is no pointy bit. But a heat gun at around 170C is required.

@isvara,I'm not quite sure how the little curly bit exercises the sphincters.
Can you describe what is happening here?

@Pommie, occasionally I hold the curl and gently pull as if to pull it out while pulling it in with the sphincter muscles. I feel the tug of war strengthens the inner muscles, al least if feels so. I don't do this often. I could use the hook to attach something to do the same thing. I never actually pull it out doing this exercise.

@isvara,mmmmm!?!??

The mod is done and it is twice as good now. I will post a few pics tomorrow if I have the time.

Removing the tail.
I never thought I'd do it but I did just that with my Classic Eupho. I then filed it neat and smooth. I think it is better. It definitely made a big difference the first few times I used it. I imagined it was being drawn in a little further possibly? The results were more intense but maybe that was because it was a new experience.
I can though, sit up and pleasure myself with it in ; something I couldn't do before. This experience is much more pleasurable with the penis being very hard and sensitive to touching and stroking. The whole genital area come more alive. I also brought on an ejaculation by letting it tip over the edge. That was intense. The muscles really squeezed and pumped. More semen than without the Aneros.
I have a Eupho Syn but I don't think I'll alter that.
