re: Cigarette ban- FOR LIFE

Bulk pipe tobacco, an injector, and tubes. Takes a few minutes to roll a pack but you end up paying pennies per cigarette.

When I smoked I briefly considered rolling my own. Seemed like it’d be a neat hobby.

I used the word roll but it actually injects the tobacco into the paper tube attached to the filter. I've smoked non filtered cigs (and rolled my own a few times) but would much rather not. The injectors are interesting. At first it was manual and similar to swiping the carbon paper receipt for credit cards after loading a tube and tobacco into the chute. Now, they have electric ones (I use a single injector one) that you load tubes and tobacco in and press a button. Walk away and come back in a few minutes to dozens of ready to smoke cigs.

I believe the UK just passed the same type of law recently. Obviously, NYS saw that and thought it was a good idea.

Brings up an interesting point. If banning smoking reduces health care costs and saves the taxpayer money then I’d entertain a ban on it. But it won’t because the gov will just spend it on other stupid shite. Also, what’s to stop them at a smoking ban?

Is what you’re making “cleaner” than a pack of Marlboro?

I don't know what all the manufacturer's are adding but I get pure tobacco (some suppliers add a preservative or some shite; it gummed up my injector) that is harvested, dried, cut, and then packaged. I wouldn't call it cleaner but it might be.

That’s one reason I used to be intrigued by the idea, that maybe it wouldn’t be QUITE as bad for me.

I certainly would not start smoking for that aspect. Especially with smokeless options.

I was in Chicago in March for a week at a convention. Hanging out in a bar during the day and fely the urge. Went to 7-11 around the corner to get a pack. He said "its $21". I was wtf

Thank you, JF… I’ll keep quit, but I think your way is pretty neat if one does happen to smoke.

Your aunts sound like a hoot!

I wonder if they've thought about the tax revenue implications of that move? State and locals make a lot of money by taxing nicotine addicts.
