Prerolls, a joint manufacturing discussion

I didnt see anyone say that at first glance or looked into what you could do if you were good at using those. They should have people like that rolling dispensary prerolls and sometimes they do because it will smoke ok for a quick joint but rarely. Usually they are rock hard.

I still roll for people so might buy one and see what I can do. I just don’t want to give bad smokes and keep up with rolling skills, some people do it for a living, joint art lol. I want to make some some day. RIU is the perfect place to share.
Consistency is why it would burn wrong. Size of material and compression on that material needs to be consistent.

Edit for spelling

Isn't the point of using a machine to keep a consistent quantity ?

After 40 years I can twist up a joint about As good as anybody .
But I don't care what anyone says you can't hand roll without spilling at least a little .

I don't use a grinder either , old school scissors user .
Can't roll a good joint with dust .

I use a grinder, but my flower doesn't turn to dust. Comes out of the jar around %55-%60 humidity. Burns just right, rolls nice. I use a scale to be consistent on the 1g going in, so they are all uniform and burn well. We have strick quality control here at adirondack sugar man. We test every 10th joint. If we're not satisfied, we test #11 too

I still find it hilarious people in legal countries trust others to roll there joints for them you cant beat your own i never found any machine that id say is worth a damn rolling mats are ok if your just starting out but they roll em a bit tight if u aint gentle i reckon that maybe speed you up op as u can already roll so yeah worth a bash if you got a pile to do

Geez kids these days.:rolleyes: back when I was growing up my mom gave me a garbage bag of weed and several packs of papers, and just said "you're going to need to learn this". I didn't have cones, grinders, or machines, just lots and lots of mid-grade weed and the will to get it right.

There is nothing wrong with machines and rolling mats if that's your only option but I think it's always best to start with the fundamentals before you decide if you want to use shortcuts, also nothing beats a hand rolled joint.

My mother showed me how the people who used to roll cigarettes for camel did it, and I've abided by it since I was 16.

I have no idea if she was bullshitting me, or someone bullshitted her, but it works. When I'm well practiced, I am pretty damn good.

Blazey susan is a rolling paper brand. Wife and I tried about every brand, all too harsh. The blazey Susan's are smooth and supple. Pink and purple too

Check out club modiano papers if you get the opportunity. Thin, clean burning, quality papers. Switched over after RAW lost their lawsuit, after a bunch of research, and I'm not looking back.

I'm a pretty old kid, and I can definitely hand roll. But having to roll 50 every few days, handrolling is not an option. I like to keep mine looking like cigs instead of cones because it's less conspicuous, and way cheaper for the papers.

Pretty sure I'm going with the ace

I had a friend with one of these for rolling cigarettes back in the day. But you loaded it with a cigarette “tube” which was a cigarette, filter and all, just no tobacco inside. It was super easy and quick and did a great job. Too bad they dont make something similar for non- filter tubes..

The machines for tubes just clamp down on the open end to hold it in place while shoving the tobacco in. I don't think the filter really needs to be there for it to work. I actually preferred the shitty $5 handheld version for packing tubes.

They used to call me "fingers" back then because I was the only one of my friends who could still roll a decent joint when we were tripping on acid and/or mushrooms.

Well, here she is boys. Smells like a high school wood shop, and is a dream to use. The size is set, I don't even have to weigh the 1g out. Just dump it in with a tip and roll the lever. It rolls put any extra product and keeps it 1g automatically. I rolled 30 in 10 minutes, and it's my first time using it.

Sent two prerolls to quality control. The handsome gentleman in the qc shop was stunningly charming. Very modest too, I also noticed.

Rolls are perfectly packed. Almost as good as hand rolled, as close as you are going to get. Highly, and soberly recommended. If you roll a ton of j's and you are sick of it, check out king rollers. I'll update periodically to let everyone know how it's holding up.

This guy only wants prerolls, no bagged flower. I was up way too late last night rolling 48 prerolls with a RAW rolling machine and a grinder. I ordered a coffee grinder to speed up the process, but are there any faster methods that don't involve me buying prerolled cones to stuff like a terpy scarecrow?

F that dude, either buy the flowers or pay me $35/hr for my expertise as a roller on top of the cost of the flower alone. I am 100% behind the opinion of @medidedicated
