 rolling machines

am i the only one that uses them.
i find that they roll acceptable joints every time, that smoke perfectly, and im not sure why some people frown upon their use 
id also like to pay respect to the 2 joints in this picture that will never fulfill their true destiny of being smoked 
2 of the 3 joints in the joint-holders were cruelly taken from me by the bad guys or police (whatever you want to call them) and are now sat in a safe waiting to be incinerated.

I like them for making joints perfectly
but IMO half the fun of joints is rolling them 
but I do miss my rolling machine, The fabric tore apart where it was glued and I need to pick up another one
Good for concerts or hiking trips where you dont want to carry a bowl and dont feel like taking the time to roll each one before you wanna smoke

my last attempt at free-rolling was an embarrasment

I learned to roll at an early age. Since I am a smoker. Tried the machines a few times, didn't really like it.

I had one of those when I was in high school. For me, half the fun of smoking a joint is rolling it. So I much prefer to do it by hand than use a machine.

Yeah, I like my fingers also. Helps cause you can manipulate those air pockets out and not roll too tight. Although I'm guilty on multiple occasions of rolling joints too tight. Its just because people don't have properly dried and cured weed alot around here. Still not a excuss cause I do it with my own on occasion.

i hand roll because its challenging and fun. i used to run with a roller like in the first picture, but lost it or gave it away or whatever. then i started rolling my own cigs and that really bumped up the game. it wasn't until i got learned by way of a snowboard crew up in breckenridge, "ZSC", how to roll kingsize inside-out. now thats the only way i do it.
just for fun though and personal achievement when you roll a super good one.

I suppose it is a different consistancy but same concept. Use both your pointer finger and middle finger along with both thumbs to roll also. People who just use their finger tips are the ones who roll the pregnant guppy looking doobs!

Why not just take some bud, roll it into joints then break them open and do it again.

Actually it's fairly easy to roll once the hash is all pressed out and ready.

Depends on how thick you make the hash paper you roll the bud in. The thicker the slower it burns.
Now if ya really wanna get serious about it you mix the weed with kif then roll it in a thicker hash paper.

These are the best joint wraps I've ever had. The smoke like a blunt but they are small like a joint. They taste hella smooth too. Had one of those then a fat blunt. I like the way those smoke better than actual wraps. The filters are legit.

I use a machine because I could never get freehand rolling down. Sometimes I'll come out with some incredi-blunt, but usually its sloppy, so to save everyone partaking in my herb, I use the machine.
They have different ones. They have ones for rolling cones, and they even have a big one that fits blunt wraps.

Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

I roll joints pretty much daily.
I learned by making a roller out of either a dollar bill or some printer paper. Then i learned to free roll from doing that enough.
Im interested in a cone roller though, because like 1/4th of the cones I roll are complete shit.

You don't roll cones, you stuff. If you use as grinder and break your weed down enough, you can stuff A LOT into those things. They burn hella nice too, I love the filters on em. I just don't care to roll that much.

I know at least 2 guys that can roll a perfect cone every time. instead of the weed being like this = before you roll you put it like > before you roll.
I probably fuck up so much because I use the small cut corner zig zags.

it's easy to do as long as you never think of how many g-strings that dollar bill has been in.
It's hard for me to describe how to do because I'm bad with writing instructions for things like that, but you pretty much make a roller.
I'd really advise just using normal paper or printer paper (my preferred) to do it. I like having extra around because you can use them to make tubes for tulips (the kind you smoke). I only had so much around because I preferred to write on blank pieces of paper instead of the kind with the lines in it for notes and debate.
However rolling machines are awesome if you get to old to roll yourself. The Vietnam vet I know uses it a lot.

I use dollar bill in a pinch. Always have a roller though. I can't roll a cig by hand since my hands and wrists are pretty messed up from the carpel tunnel.
They look normal and function fine, but almost no flexibility. I can't touch my thumb and pinky on either hand.
Sucks....

I did a quick google search on the dollar bill tech.
Check the link for a picture and text how to.

Edit; only difference that I do is I start with the paper laid in the bill and then put the weed in.

I've never used a roller before but just about all of my friends use them. I don't really have anything against rollers but I think you should at least try to learn how to roll a joint. I like the papers with the metal wire in it for a roach clip, there easier to roll with too imo

I've smoked quite a few of these, and I think they are pretty great, they lack that gnarly blunt flavor that most papers have, you can actually taste the weed in these. Best one I ever smoked i stuffed with some Pot of Gold and then a layer of hash, then a layer of sour diesel, and then a another layer of hash, then a weed cap.
That shit was delicious.

I feel every stoner should learn how to hand roll. Just practice practice practice, roadtripped to miami for SB this year with my buddy (30 hr drive one way from me)and I've been rolling joints so long I roll them while driving not taking my eyes off the road. Its normal for my close friends to see but whenever we're cruising with a new stoner they are always amazed/freaked the fuck out for their life, then they hit the joint and chill out.
Sidenote, I hate switching from blunts to joints or vice versa cause I always have to remind myself what I'm rolling so I roll it right the first time. Tuck v. Fold, nomesayin?

It's easy peasy to roll. I think people just make it more difficult than what it really is. It can be a bitch if you're rolling with mid quality stuff cause it's so dry. However if you roll with some sticky dank, she practically rolls herself
