Thanked: 5Any handrolled cigarette smokers?
So anyone else roll their own cigarettes? If so what kind of tobacco/papers do you use? Any of you use filters or just smoke them unfiltered? My personal favorite is anything from Peter Stokebye. I usually smoke their Amsterdam Shag blend, sometimes I'll mix it with stockholm blend. As for papers I usually use zig zag 1/4" sometimes the white packs.

Back when I smoked I tried several times to hand roll my own. I gave up when I realized I couldn't roll anything that didn't end up looking like a joint.

Thanked: 5Lol I know what you mean. A friend of mine used to have me roll some for him. I would intentionally roll them to look like joints so whenever a cop drove by him as he was lighting up he'd either get really funny looks or actually get stopped. We both got a pretty big kick out of it.

Rolling papers are immaterial in my opinion, but I used to love Drum Halfzware Shag. I still dream of smoking it, such a tasty tobacco.

Thanked: 101Used to smoke Drum. Rolled with machine and by hand. Tried other tobaccos, but nothing ever smoked like Drum. They stopped importing into the US for a while because of tobacco lawsuits. When they came back to the states it wasn't the same.

I also used to smoke hand rolled Drum on occasion in the 80's, couldn't find any other tobacco with the same flavour.....do they still sell it here I wonder?

When I was in Chicago I roll my own...$10 a pack there. They have a nice tobacco shop on wells that has some no name tobacco in a glass jar that I like.

Thanked: 4249I never used an electric rollers, but ive been using two different injectors a little plastic one made by Tops and a larger hand cranked all metal unit. I found that both work very well and living in NY state at 8 to 10 dollard a pack im saving a fortune each months. I use mostly Buoy or
golden harvest tobacco with golden harvest tubes once you get the feel to make your own it really easy and quick, it all about how much tobacco you put in to much and hard to drag to little the tobacco falls out of the tubes and crumples.
Please report back on the electric injectors?
