How to roll your own cigarette using a rolling machine

By Parrophernalia

Getting started

Trying to roll your own cigarette by hand can turn out to be quite a task if you don't know what you are doing. To save you the trouble of having to do too much twisting and pulling and risking a loss of a good amount of tobacco or legal herbs, it would be a wise descision to purchase a rolling machine. Rolling machines can be purchased in any smoker shop that sells smoking accessories or even online. The cost should range you between $5-$10 depending on the size. If you purchase online your final cost may incur shipping fees.

So you have finally purchased (or borrowed) your rolling machine. You don't need much. All you need is:

  • Rolling machine
  • Legal herbs or tobacco
  • Rolling glue (optional)
  • Filter tips (optional)
  • Rolling paper


Tools to have

Rolling machines come in all different sizes. A standard size for a cigarette would be approx 77mm. They also come with "aprons" which is the stretch of paper or cloth inside which holds the herb or tobacco together. These can also be replaced
