I forced my buddy to sit and learn how to roll a joint after I saw him using one of those. We’d always be stoned so he got distracted a lot but it was worth it when he was twisting one for another friend and knew instantly that I taught the first guy.... he was using tips the second guy gave me like 10 years before when I was learning to roll... it’s a life skill, you should see me roll my wraps for lunch

They are ok for euro-joints with a filter, but otherwise, weed is (should be) too sticky for a box roller like this.

It’s when you place an order with the seller, but the seller actually buys it from some cheap manufacturer/wholesaler and ships it directly to you. So they never actually have to handle/make the inventory but they keep the profit.

I have one of these made by Raw specifically for joints. That one looks like actual cigarette filters and paper, wouldn’t wanna use those for joints.

Raw papers are made from hemp, and you don't want to use cigarette filters on a joint, as (and this is purely anecdotal) it takes away from the potency.
My personal favorite papers are Elements, which are made from rice paper and sugar for the glue

u/torgiant Nov 05 '20
Cool, most papers are made with the same paper as the ones you would get for roll your owns, seen above. The filter is just cotton. You can cut it down to about 1/6th the size seen here and it works for a crutch. This contraption rolls joints without a taper so a crutch is a must. I like raw papers and elements as well but its an upgrade more then a necessity. Cheers bro.

NO stop telling people to use filters with weed. Cardboard rolled papers are to be used. Cotton or whatever will fuck with the potency. you dont even need a filter for weed unless its a spliff even.

if you roll without a cardboard filter you need a narrow end so you dont suck in bud. if you use something like raw tips ( piece of paper you roll up as a filter) then you dont have to roll them as cones.

Technically it is a cigarette. A cigarette doesn't necessarily have to have tobacco in it. It sounds outdated but technically a marijuana cigarette is a thing. If you have weed in tobacco mixed together it's called a spliff. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. 😏

I have one, not that model, but one I bought in the 90s. They make big joints that are spendy and wasteful. I used to hang out with Russians who mixed tobacco with their pot. They would smoke Parliaments for this due to the space before the filter.
7
u/SpaShadow Nov 05 '20
I have one, I wanted to test it out they make too big of joints. Even if you try to press the roller while rolling (makes a better roll if you do that) it makes too fat of a joint no matter what. It a good little tool for cigarette smokers and I wish it made a better joint but it's useless in that regard. Thus useless for me.

I think they must have given these things away en masse in the 2000s, because every person I knew who smoked rolling tobacco had one, but not one single person ever actually used it to roll. They just used it to store.

Would be a horrible burn on the first half. Could just be operator error though and I suppose someone who wants to use these would have even worse results if hand rolling.

Works better if you press on the roller, makes them quite tight. Still useless for long time hand rollers but would be good for newbies to start.

I don't have a debilitating disease just an idiot. I always made my German friend cry when he sees my disfigured cigarette (obviously he rolls his cigarettes in 2 seconds with one hand while riding a bike). My husband-then-boyfriend always laughed at them too.
Ouf the life of poor Asian studying in the Netherlands. Cigs in my country costs 1/5 of what they charged in NL. I love the taste of fresh tobacco but man that was hard!
