Does anyone here roll their own cigarettes?

In college, we had a roller at our house and bought filters, but most of us still preferred to roll by hand.

Gotcha. I definitely don't have the patience or skill to roll by hand. I can see where it would be interesting as recreational thing though. You can experiment with a lot of different tobaccos by hand rolling. There are only certain tobaccos that can be put through my injector to avoid clogging the machine.

If you get good at hand rolling, it's pretty quick. I could roll a cigarette in about 30 seconds.

Edit: Actually probably less. More like 15 seconds.

Jesus, that's faster than I can do it with a machine.... See lacking skills. I need to find a legit tobacco shop that sells a wide variety of tobaccos and such. The places I go to are basically head shops with a hookahs and the flavored tobacco for them, bowls, bongs, lotto and 3 or four different types of tobacco. Not exactly the tobacco connoisseur's daily shop.
