Its cool because you have full tubes with a filter and non of that fire retardant on it that makes a cigarette go out for no reason. You add the tobacco and the tubes and start the machine. They feed a tube onto a gatling gun looking thing and inject the tobacco and drops it out on the next turn of the machine. It was a sweet deal I have a hand rolling machine that cost $10 but was to easy to break. Maybe, I should wait and check out behind the buildings to see if they don't dump the old machines for scrap. And let whoever wants to use it for free do it.
