Industrial Strength Body Jewelry

[steelnavel]

Lenore and I just got back from a tour of the Industrial Strength factory. There was no chocolate waterfall used to churn the chocolate or square candies that look round. What we did see was a brand new state-of-the-art facility that can create vast amounts of the highest-quality precision Industrial Strength brand body jewelry. Every step of the process includes quality control practices that ensure the final product is perfect in every way.

Industrial Strength's new factory, in Carlsbad, California, is only a two hour drive from the Steel Navel offices. That physical closeness makes it even easier for Steel Navel and Industrial Strength to work closely together to bring the entire Industrial Strength and Borneo Joe line to our customers.

The story behind Industrial Strength's creation is that JD Lorenz started Industrial Strength in his bedroom. Well, we all started in our bedrooms, but unlike most of those bedroom entrepreneurs, JD went on to create what must be the largest, most efficient, and precise body jewelry factory in the world.

A pic from our Industrial Strength factory visit is attached.

Your captive bead rings are looking good in that pic, John.

Too bad about the lack of chocolatey goodness, but Yay for closer ties to Industrial Strength!

I'm imagining chocolate cbrs right now... or chocolate plugs?

[Ookami]

I <3 IS! You can really feel the quality in their products I appreciate you carrying IS for us. I'm glad you got to visit the factory - I hope to in the near future myself.

Isn't it cool how the spectacular ideas and dreams always occur in such seemingly insignificant (to anyone but the dreamer) places?

They're actually 4g IS circulars. I've been wearing them for about a week and my left is already close to ready for a 2g!

The weight of the circulars is doing the stretching. Another poster here said his wife has been wearing captives and had the same results. It IS a way to avoid the sting of stretching. What I still don't get, is my left is always the most painful to stretch with tapers, but it's the quickest to stretch with weight.

It's interesting. I like hearing about how other people stretch. I've read that if you stretch with weight, it can result in thinning of the skin on the lower of the fistula, as that is where the weight rests. I haven't known if this was true or not. What's your experience with it been?

[steelnavel]

I don't think I would ever know if the fistula is thinner on the bottom unless I'm autopsied.

I'm going to do some more research because it just seems to fast and easy.
