Being a non-smoker and having bought one of these machines for someone whom I won't be able to convince to give up smoking I've looked at several TH-cam videos for instructions on 'how to use' this device (as it's likely I'll have to demonstrate it to the intended recipient). This was the most informative video I viewed as it was showed, 'how to use it' as opposed to someone showing, 'how they used it'. I.e. this was a video for a complete novice. I appreciate that it's not a complicated apparatus but to me it was completely alien. The video demonstrated the side profile of the machine so I knew which way round it went i.e. what was the front and back of the machine (OK most might know this but, as I said, it's alien to me) as well as the front aspect and then the operation of it. Further, the commentary was informative, accurate, clear and succinct.
just got my first roller from the tobacco store and the young person who helped me suggested i search for this video. i SUCK at rolling by hand. i had this figured out after about 5 minutes. thanks!
@@rustey86753ohnineive smoked some cheap tobacco that had pieces of stems in it. Guess ya don't realize that tobacco leaves do have stems and they don't always remove every price of em.
Rolled my 1st one just now based on this tutorial. Wish I could post a picture. Looks like a machine rolled it..... quickly rolled another four with various filters. Loving this.... thx for this tutorial!
you should be aware that since the prohibition on marijuana was lifted in Canada last year the price of zigzags have increased by 300% somebody is getting ripped off.
@MarijuanaPlant how come when I do it I get a very tight and not cylindrical joint, can u explain how to roll literally just the roll part what is that, is it to move something round and round or what ? Please help..
I bought one of these off Amazon with a pack of zags when I was 14. Got my first 60 bag of blue dream and never looked back. I would be dead without this medicine.
Kinda skipped over the hard part which is how to roll the joint away or towards me do they both go in the same direction I don't know why but it's hard to roll these things the paper just keeps slipping out.
Thank you for explaining to turn both rollers. I bought Top brand(they're all basically the same and followed the instructions.By the way I'm 69 and have been twing 'em up for over 50 yrs.I could roll a joint like a cigarette while driving with my knee.No more. 2 crushed thumbs and arthritis AND those slick ass papers that will not tuck led me to a machine.I get tired of bongs all the time.Anywho,it said zilch about the back roller.Just turn the front roller towards you. All the weed popped out onto my chair mat (thank God). I tried again.Failure. 3rd time I turned the back one and got a decent joint.The next one was better.I just came looking to see if I was missing something in translation. Hell yea! The COMPLETE process.Thanks again for the clarification.Now I don't feel like a dumbass!
I know how you feel about not being able to roll. I've tried for years to roll jazz cigs and herb cigars, but can't for the life of me. I'm looking at buying one of these rollers. I travel a lot, so carrying a piece around is a bit unwise, plus my rig which is a mini hookah clogs about every bowl or two.
@@tule8669 they dont tell you when you pack it use both back and front thumbs at front towards you at the same time use your fore fingers for the back of the roller so that both roll together dont pack too tight pull tabacco and loosely pack it if u use a tip put that in first close stick paper in roll twards you with both thumbs and behind roll with the fore fingers cause it will get stuck if u dont I would recommend the tin type hand ones easier to use than the plastic..
I was having this problem too trying to follow the instructions and then I watched this and realised I totally missed the step where you close it. It seems a bit tricky but you can get the hang of it pretty quick: move just the bottom roller up the J shape and don't try to move anything else, then it should enclose your "tobacco" and allow to make the core like it talks about
ACHHHH! THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD! I been rolling "cigarettes" the old fashioned way for 40+ yrs, and I guess I will continue! I was fine until I was to use my thumbs and roll just the front roller... IT DONT GO ANYWHERE! Well.. it will go the WRONG way... Re-exposing the "tobacco" and I am back where I started... I think I'm done.... 🤦🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️
As someone who hasn’t rolled a joint in years, this is very useful for smoking the remnants of cigarettes’ past when all the stores are closed and I have a single cigarette left
Pretty sure a pretty good percentage of ZigZags customer base use their products for whacky tobaccy not regular tobacco. But gotta have some way to roll your plant based smoke.
Go all the way with tobacco from the far end right up to the filter. Make sure the baccy is shredded properly, ie. pull it all apart and dump it on a clean sheet of paper or desk before you try to put it between the rollers. Once in the rollers, tap down the tobacco gently with the (short) edge of your papers-packet all the way along. The packet edge is the perfect width. Before you roll, the tobacco should still be a little loose and slightly 'fatter' than the filter. After a couple of rolls, if you open the rollers to have a look: filter and tobacco 'tube' will be the same diameter, with baccy packed nicely. Then put the paper in etc as in the video.
I'm having issues with the paper coming back out after rolling through. I'm doing everything shown. It happens about 75% of the time and it's really getting annoying. Does anyone have any suggestions?
There should be a movable roller and a fixed roller. Always have the movable roller facing you at the front. Once the paper is in place, use two thumbs to slowly move the movable roller down, not up. If you forget to lick the glue strip or have it facing away from you, that's when the paper comes back out.
Think the rolling device I got is broken because it keeps removing the paper from it. Was hoping it would be easier and helpful since I'm not great at it but my product I got is just worthless, doesn't work like how others do.

Things to check: 1. Does your machine have a lever on the side for 'standard' and 'economy'. Mine does. If you have it on 'standard' but only put enough tobacco in for a thin cigarette it will be loose. 2. I do two full rolls after the paper goes in. This seems to make it tighter. Any more rolls than that, it will start to twist the paper and make it tighter again. If you keep going, of course, it might rip the paper so do a little experimenting. 3. Whenever I pull the finished, rolled cigarette out, sometimes the filter can be a little loose. You can use a fatter filter and it will be tight. Or, with slim filters I immediately pinch the filter (and paper) end between my thumbs, as the glue should will still be a little wet. That normally fixes it. 4. If you leave a little space at the tip end, you should be able to pinch the cigarette tip and even give it a little twist to close it off.
This is a shit ton easier to follow compared to the instructions it came with.
Thank you for this. My husband has dementia and having difficulties rolling his cigarettes- so Thanks to your demo I have learned....
Freida Richards cool I’m just shit at rolling
Freida Richards look into lions mane mushroom capsules for his dementia. They’re non psychoactive and perfectly legal
I think he should stop smoking cigarettes if he is developing dementia.

Make sure there aren't any stems in your mix. They can poke a pinhole, making it difficult to draw smoke from your perfectly rolled cig.
Stems in my “tobacco” 😂

Zig Zag are amazing rolling papers, they are my favorite after 17 years of smoking. Raw takes a close second but Zig Zag has never done me wrong.

What about a filter?
Filters are for pussies
fuck a filter
Same procedure, just put the filter in with the tobacco. You'll want to check that the filters are the right size for the roller.
“Smokes with cigawette “ iykyk
Yeah mine isn’t rolling
Same
Can you use the larger sizes to roll with smaller size papers? I don't want to have to buy all three of them, one for each size paper. Thanks.
So it’s really that easy? I been hand rolling for all this time and could’ve just got one of these? Can you use tips in these?

Thx just rolled a “cig”

I've got an outo. Cigarette roller doesn't pack the tubes fully ..how do I settle the tobacco. To the filter?
Go all the way with tobacco from the far end right up to the filter.
Make sure the baccy is shredded properly, ie. pull it all apart and dump it on a clean sheet of paper or desk before you try to put it between the rollers.
Once in the rollers, tap down the tobacco gently with the (short) edge of your papers-packet all the way along. The packet edge is the perfect width.

Then put the paper in etc as in the video.

the paper coming back out? are you making sure the non-glue edge is tucking and rolling, instead of sliding up and out towards the gum edge?
Try gently squeezing the two roller bars together as you roll them.
There should be a movable roller and a fixed roller. Always have the movable roller facing you at the front. Once the paper is in place, use two thumbs to slowly move the movable roller down, not up. If you forget to lick the glue strip or have it facing away from you, that's when the paper comes back out.
