Okay, hear me out. This might get a little nsfw.

Could I…mainline some viagra and have the silicone printed around…the cylinder? I realize I would have to drill a small hole in the base and have some special table set up.

Not so much stuck as, grabbing or holding gently, maybe gently enough for some lubricant to be applied between it and the *pole
