Now, I roll bad ass freehand, but I can't figure out how the hell to use this thing. Anybody know how to use a roller? :eek:

I have no choice, personally. I can't roll by hand worth a shit, so I use a roller.
However, I can only get it to work half the time anyway LOL.

really? offensive? Where do you live?

I LOVE my rolling machine. I can't roll a joint free hand to save my life. They always come out like shit. I bought one of those ZEN rollers from a headshop, best damn thing I ever bought. Perfect damn j every time, and nice and tight and packed so keeps a good burn like a cig.

North east of england. rollnig isnt that hard, you go from cant roal to shit j's to tampons (overly fat) to good J's to brilliant J's, all it needs is practice.

It takes me no more than a minute to roll a J in the light, if I have my grinder...

if you're rolling a joint in a hurry, you're not doing it for the right reasons.

for those rolling joint rollers, they usually have a moveable axle...one of the dowels will shift position so you can put the weed in, then shift back so the weed doesn't pop out the top. I usually roll it several times before I put in the paper, and make sure you know which way the paper will pull so you put the sticky on the proper side!

and I personally find it much easier to put the filter in after the J is rolled...makes a better fit IMO

I couldn't get on with rolling machine's (too tight).:)

Rolling by hand come's naturally to me now.

I do smoke 40-50 hand rolled cig's a day though so it would lol.:D

I can roll free hand, but I have a rolling machine too. If you want to roll a joint that looks like a cig they are great. I can also roll fatter joints with the machine.

I get along pretty well rolling by hand if I use a grinder. But I have a friend who rolls a joint in record time with his rolling machine. I'm usually smoking by myself or with one or 2 others, so I'm not in any hurry...a rolling machine is cool if you have to roll a bunch of joints to take somewhere.

Yeah, its extremely simple. You want to be frustrated some work on my car. I think I'm about to quit and leave her up on stands in my garage indefinately.

That is about the most painful thing I could ever do, but I thnk its about to happen.

here are my directions

OK, dude, fuck those directions.

Put the weed in the cup formed by the material between the rollers, spead evenly. Roll both rollers in same direction a couple times. Lay paper in to be rolled along material. Use trial and error, you'll get it sooner or later!

Thats how I did it anyways, got it the first time though :)

OK Ghost here is what you do.

1: Grind/cut up .75 grams or so of weed.
2: Make the rollers seperate and put a finger between them so they do not go together.
3: Place said weed between the rollers evenly spread out.
4: Push the rollers together.
5: Give it a few good rolls keeping them together tight. To roll hold it with both hands infront of your body. Place both thumbs on the closed roller to you. Push forward with your thumbs, repeat 10 times.
6: Get a paper
7: Put the paper in so the side with the sticky goes in last facing up.
8: Roll like detailed in step 5 until the sticky part is about to go in.
9: Lick the sticky part.
10: Roll some more. The more you roll the tighter the joint.
11: Seperate the rollers.
12: Remove Joint
13: Smoke joint.

Is this a good enough walk though?

Rolling by hand is definately rewarding, but unless your suberhuman, you'll never hand roll anything that'll smoke as good as a machine rolled j.
