As far as making your own cigarettes, which method do you prefer? Hand rolling or injecting? My friend and I both make our own and we debate this a lot. I, personally, prefer injecting with tubes. My friend prefers hand rolling his. I like injected better because I like the feel of a factory made cigarette, but still prefer the taste and price of a roll your own. My friend who prefers to hand roll his claims they taste better and that injected cigarettes feel "cheap".

i started by hand rolling and will do it if im in a pinch (ie just need one and gotta have it right now!).

otherwise, i inject when i'm home watching a movie or tv or smthg at night. then i always have nice, professional looking smokes all the time.

To each his own! But i'm confused by your comment. What do you mean by injected vs. roll your own?

Do you mean using tubes and an injector vs. a hand roller with separate papers and filters?

I'm a RYO noob and not trying to be a jerk, just asking what's the difference? To me, both methods are RYO; you are both just using a different means to an end.

I started by using a hand injector and have graduated to a crank injector. Saves time and tons of cash. If you are referring to using separate papers and filters, that seems rather time consuming; however, I've never tried that so I really can't say which one I'd prefer. BUT I LOVE my Top o Matic. I can sit down and turn on the tube and in a few hours have 3 or 4 packs of smokes. My tobacco shop is very limited on supplies anyway and as far as convenience goes, it seems to me the injector is the way to go. But then again as I said, I've never tried the papers and filter method, so not sure how the taste is different.

I am new also, I have tried both ways if I had to hand roll with paper and filter I would be a non smoker. I love my hand injector saves money and you get a better cig. I am looking into getting a crank injector that my tobacco store has very soon.
