My grandpa would roll his own king edwards. I remember going to the cigar/tobacco shop to get him the tins of it and then how he used all the old tins in his workshop to hold screws and bolts and hardware.
Dang. Realizing he's been gone 25 years now.

guy would handroll outside the dorm freshman year in college, occasionally asked him for one when I had smoked my last.

We'd buy buglers just for the papers if the store was out of rolling papers.

My husband and his friends were prolific pot smokers (and pathetic rollers). Even though I didnt smoke, I learned to roll perfect joints and cigs.

I also don't drink so I was also a great designated driver. Bad influences are so much fun to hang out with

I buy 2 cartons of cigarette tubes for $10. I then buy 16 oz of largo sun dried pipe tobacco. I use an automatic roller to roll my own. Can roll a carton in 30 minutes. Its the kind of pipe tobacco you can either smoke in a pipe or like a cigarette. Cost $14 for a bag. So $24 for two cartons of cigarettes. $1.20 a pack. Cant beat it. The state jacks up the price of cigs with tax, I find an end around to offer them up a big FU.

I don't smoke regularly. If I do smoke, I like to get Drum and hand roll it.

I rarely smoke, but when I do, I love some handrolled balishag in hemp papers.

My grandfather smoked King B tobacco for 50 years, rolling his own. Quit when he was in his 60s.

Saw me sitting there rolling a cigarette when he was in his mid 80s, he rolled a loose cigarette single handed. I was impressed.

I rolled him a tight cigarette that looked like it came out of a machine, he was impressed.

Hes been gone almost 6 years, better man than I could ever hope to be.
