I've always liked a roller the same width as the papers. Fill it evenly from end to end, then when you take it out, just pinch a little out of one end and twist it. I've used a short piece of dowel and a hair drier to stretch out the vinyl, or whatever it is, in my roller. Almost doubled the size, fits right around a g per joint now. I'd like to find one that rolls em fatter, but not a blunt/ cone roller, just fat joints.It's automatic after you've done it a zillion times.
But seriously, it's easy if you pay attention.
There are two things that are key:
1) Use a machine that is wider than your papers and fill it completely. Then you can easily adjust them if they are too hard or soft.
2) A consistent texture is essential for a good burn, so a grinder is highly recommended. I like the kind that do NOT have holes that let the weed fall into a storage chamber. They are OK if that's all you've got, but I like to have complete control over granularity. If your weed is too sticky for the grinder, let it dry out for a day then give it a medium grind before rolling.
I bought one of the sharpstone crank grinders 5 years ago, maybe? One of the better grinders I've put my hands on. IDK what they're like now, but as a machinist I can say this one was made to tighter tolerances than most. Everything fits tight, the threads aren't loose and it has blades, not spikes, that don't have huge gaps so they shear instead of tearing or jamming. I'd say skip the kief screens, if you're grinding anything sticky they just plug up.
