Greetings /diy/. I come to you with a unique situation. I have a sunken chest like the pic and I'm very insecure about it. To the point where I'm a shut in and don't have a job.

In order to fix it though, I would need money(and a job). So I want to create a "prosthetic" chest piece so I don't have to turn against the direction of the wind and wear 2 layers of shirts every time I'm out. It would help me be confident enough to go into public regularly and deal with people.

Issue is, I'm not nearly resourceful or clever enough to come up with something like that on my own, so I need ideas. I was thinking something like specially cut styrofoam with some type of belt going through it for a strap. Any other input?

I'm aware that this seems goofy but I have a complex and don't feel like dealing with it the hard way.

I'd second the wrap. Far easier than a prosthetic and fewer questions if it gets seen. I'm not sure if they sell a wide bandage for it, or if you could just buy some stretchy fabric and some velcro and pull off the same effect easily.

If you are going to go prosthetic you could always just cover your chest with a piece of thin cloth or a garbage bag as a tarp and fill the void. Wet your skin or use vaseline so it sticks to the contours, then fill it up with spray foam while you lay on your back. Cheap $3 cavity mold.

Then with a rasp you can sculpt in some Rob Liefeld pecs. Or stick an Arc Reactor in there, like motherfuckin' Tony Stark.

Ive never tried it, but the chest wrap idea sounds the most comfortable idea. Getting a piece of foam or plastic to stay in your chest seems like it would be annoying and restrictive. If your ribs are flared out, you could possibly put some cloth in between your chest and the wrapping.

A friend of mine had this problem, and I had no idea. I was at his house one night and I went to take a shit and when I walked back into the living room he was lying on the couch with his shirt off, and his chest cavity was filled with juice and vodka that he was drinking with a long straw.

I was already high as fuck at the time and had never heard of this disorder before so it took me some time to process the information. I stood there paralyzed in the doorway staring at it.

When I realized he had used the last of the vodka in his little display he handed me another long straw and told me to "start sucking".

As we both sucked vodka juice from his chest he made eye contact and winked and smiled and I said "dude I don't even know what's going on right now" and he said "shhhhhh, you'll ruin the moment."

I also have a 1 inch scar on my side where a tube sucked any access blood from below my lungs. I was unconscious for 2 days and in the hospital for 9. I had to wear a resin breastplate for 6 months afterward, and anytime I wasn't on morphine, the pain was so intense, I wanted to die. Truly die. My chest still concaves and I have felt the tightness from the stitches every moment of every day for nearly 9 years.

Thistalented /diy/eron the pic is "the elephant man" from china.
I quote:
"Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder that can cause abnormal growth of neural cell tissue, leading to physical deformity. [...] In July 2007, he underwent surgery to have 33lb of tumor tissue removed from his face. A second operation in 2008 removed another 10lb. [...]
Doctors have admitted it is impossible that Chuncai will ever look “normal”, due to permanent disfigurement of his facial bone structure. But they believe he will be able to have a less challenging life."

Soo, why am I posting this? Because I thought just saying "Man the fuck up and get a job and a life, and maybe by the time you earned enough money you'll also have learned you don't really need a normal chest to lead a normal life" was a bit harsh. But, yeah. You get the picture.

OP I've worked with clients in similar situations. I've built light weight chest pieces that are a joy to wear no matter how hot it is out, and absolutely undetectable.
The basic idea is use foam to create the outer shape you desire by molding it to your chest. Then when it dries and hardens your press over it a linen fabric which is starched and pressed to take the shape you desire then it is coated in a simple polymer that allows great strength and breathability. The structure is worn under a tight fitting undershirt.

Have you considered placing a dildo or fleshlight in it? A lot of women get off fucking men, like pegging, for example. Fucking the chest hole might be an empowering experience for them. At the very least, you could make money on chest fucking porn until you got enough to have it corrected.

What this guy said. Pectus excavatum is literally the single most common congenital deformity in existence. It's not weird or creepy, you don't have 12 fingers or a cleft fucking palette dude. You should probably get it corrected though unless you want to live with your heart sandwiched up against your fucking lungs until one of the two collapses.

It's really not a big deal. I've known several people with it and they weren't ashamed to go swimming or anything like that.

You're being stupid op. It's like what's worse - finding out someone has one slightly enlarged plum sized testicle, or finding out they wear a medically prescribed brace to hold it up so it doesn't stick to their side of the leg. Obviously the disgusting sweatstained nutbrace is creepier.

Holy Shit, the number of fucking retards in this thread saying to use expanding foam.

If you're that self conscious about it dude, get someone to help you make a lifecast of your chest, using some fast set alginate, and fast set plaster bandages over the top, then run a plaster casting of your chest.

Sculpt into the cavity to make your chest look like it isn't sunken, and then make a mould of it.

Clean the clay off of the plaster casting of your chest, and then cast a silicone plug for the cavity, by dumping silicone into the mould, and strapping the plaster cast of your chest to the open face of the mould.

There, simple silicone plug custom fitted to you.

>> No.462200

It wouldn't surprise me if there existed like, corset-like things for pectus excavatum, but instead of constricting they'd keep stuff out of the cavity.

That being said, bandages are likely just as useful. And it's a completely valid reason to do that, though suspicious at an airport.

a few thoughts/ideas:

-the wrap idea sounds like a good plan for quick solution
-have fun if you like hobbies - read up on mold making, create a mold of your chest, sculpt a desired chest plate onto it and create a plastic/resin chestpiece. use velcro straps to wrap it around you. it'd be a little protection and solve the issue (not sure if ur in any danger with this condition so maybe that helps)

-id ask a doctor about working out to build muscle over the area. i'm not sure but i'd imagine it would potentially create bigger issues down the road if you were to develop a lot of muscle on the area. when you/if you get it fixed the muscles may be uber deformed etc possibly

I was imagining a dude tittyfucking himself with that on his chest and wonder why nobody thought/joked about the consecueces of drilling your own chest to put a fleshlight in there if you did not want to tape it around your body. I had spent a lot of time thinking about this since the dude wrote that comment. I think I'm going to sleep.

Wrap it up like >>457572 suggested, but keep your keys and other important small items in your cavity, so if you get mugged they won't get taken.

are you me?
Well except for the complex and shut in bit.
I have a pectus excavatum aswell.
I to am interested in this.

I was thinking make a negative with clay, then with plaster make a mold.
and use that for all kinds of attachments.
Smuggling, fake blood for fake stabbing with various items, a more hygenic way to eat cereal, drink vodka, make an arc reactor base.

Why don't you use some motorcycle chest protection? There are some thin enough to hide under regular t-short.

>> No.462541

Pectus Excavatum. I have the same, but a very mild case. The cartalidge between your ribs and your sternum didn't stop growing when it should have.

As far as a prosthetic, wouldn't a couple belts of leather around the chest do the trick just fine? Have you tried underarmor or similar? I find that underarmor stretches tight enough that when the wind blows my shirt won't dip down at all.

Okay, well you could probably pour some of that stuff that they use to make molds with into your chest. Then, you would make a mold from that with plaster. Then you would need a light weight material that you could attach two straps around your chest with and two straps over the shoulders...

look up prosthetic makeup.

The only thing is, you probably would not want to use latex. There is probably a foam rubber or some sort of light weight rubbery material that breathes.

If you are dumb and can't figure it out, you might just want to make something out of paper mache.

Ya I don't understand something. How goes something that's reasonably hidden by a shirt. Keeps him from getting a job. How many shirtless jobs can there be?

Get a job and then get surgery

New fag here. I have pectus carinatum different but many of the same feels. Big problem as atalented /diy/erbut as a adult not so much, My well developed charisma is social compensation. Any attention negative or positive because of my chest is now a good thing.

I actually seen a someone like OP at work two days ago, he lifted his shirt and quickly turned to hide himself before putting his shirt back on.

Just a reminder OP this is more common then you think but we all hide it on some level or another so we don't see it in others much.

If I was you I would look into if your government will pay for corrective surgery (communist health care) You'll just have to lie and claim it's causing chronic crippling pain.

For the short term I'd wear a small slightly too tight shirt and one large lose one over top.

Will be hard to find another solution more comfortable and easy then that.

I have pectus excavatum as well as some mild gynecomastia

A tight tank top underneath my shirt fixes both issues. Look around and you might be able to find some thicker tank tops for better coverage. If you have even the smallest amount of muscle on your chest the tank top will stretch over the sunken region perfect. Alternatively when I was in track all the nigs would wear this flexible shit called underarmor to show off their steroid induced muscles. The material looks like a sort of super dense spandex or something, but its apparently breathable (its made for sports) and would be the extreme version of the tank top fix.
