LOL. I figured it was someone on EA that bid on it. Damn it, Flo, you cost me an extra 3.50. If you'd bid again, it was yours. That was going to be my last bid.

Unbelievable!

Hey! Maybe we could arrange to pass it around the group and everyone could take their turn with it. My homebrew clamp seems to have worked, but I could use the real thing just to make sure.

Give it a test and see if it works properly and you got your moneys worth.Put a small string or a straw in it and close it.If it cuts it clean it is not sprung.

We have 2 of those in the office already.The best ever made.It is a shame the company stopped.Wimcos cost 250 $ new because it was all stainless steel.Which was a good deal as I rusted out 3 100$ burdizzos over 30 years on the farm.

I thought real hard about bidding on it .

Dont need 3.

If you ever decide to sell it let the group know.

I have the word wimco in my ebay search engine so I see 2 to 6 a year pop up.

Slammr (imported) wrote: Tue Jun 26, 2007 5:20 pm Not that I plan to use it, but I bought this thing off Ebay. I bid as a lark, not thinking I'd win it, but did. I think there was only one bid other than mine. It'll be a conversation piece, if nothing else. I'm not about to stick my balls in it. Ouch. At least, I'll know what one looks like for any stories I might write.

Let me know when you have completed your treatment with it . Or maybe I could come and help you make it superfluous to your needs and then buy it at half price for used goods ???

bye bye

TheFrank,

I'm sorry, but I find this very, very difficult to believe.

Vesal!

Looks the same but very suttle differances.

Very narrow edges.Cord stops on apposing sides.Very small cord stops.Much narrower gap between cord stop and blade.Made completely out of surgical stainless steel.It had the name wimco stamped on it and cost 250$ which was its downfall.

Nobody is willing to spend that much.

Saw one for sale on ebay today

very rare I only see one or 2 a year anymore.

This came in the mail today. It's a beautiful piece of equipment, stainless steel and in perfect condition. It might well work on a person's balls. I doubt that the cords to one's balls could survive a double clamping with this thing, but even if I wanted to be castrated, I wouldn't use it. If I'm going to be rid of my balls, I want to be rid of them all together, not to render them ineffective; and from what I've read, even those that kill the function of their balls with a burdizzo don't necessarily rid themselves of their balls. From what this guy writes, he successively killed his balls, but six months later they were only a little smaller. link (http://burdizzocastration.com/gallery/m ... itemId=682)

I doubt, too, that one could do it effectively without using a local anesthetic first. Smashing the cords to one's balls has to hurt; besides, it's bound to do some serious damage to the scrotum. And like Kristoff said, you might just end up with chronic pain and live balls.
