Choosing your tobacco

  If you choose to 'Make Your Own' cigarettes, you will need tubes and an injector. Tubes are

available from a number of manufacturers and come in both standard king size and 100mm lengths.

There are quite a few styles of injectors on the market ranging from single king size cigarette makers

to high-end table top models. If you want to switch back and forth between king size and 100mm

cigarettes, the Zig Zag tube injector will make both with the press of a button! If you want to make

enough cigarettes for a day or two in one sitting, the Premier tube injector will do two at once to save

you time. The table top models are great for people who have trouble manipulating small machines.

  You need to find the one that suits your strength preference. Some tobaccos are chemical free like

American Spirit, and some are almost so fresh that you need to let them sit for a day or two before

you can roll it like the Stokkebye. If you don't smoke all that much, then a pouch is your best option

so it doesn't dry out. If you smoke more than a pack a day, then larger cans are more cost effective.

If you are new to RYO, it is important to try a few blends, so you know what you like and why.
