    If your PS is meant to be taken as sarcasm, just learn to roll. All it takes is practice and it's easier than you'd think. Besides, rolling joints from a cigarette machine is probably even harder to master than the art of rolling a normal joint.

    If, this is genuinely a matter of your grandad having arthritis, you should be able to pick up a rolling machine in any decent tobaccanist. Try one of the older corner shops, particularly anywhere that has a pipe display in the window.

    if this is sarcasm I would just learn to do it, spend a day rolling with just tobacco, sit down and watch telly and keep doing it and ripping it open and doing it again. Rolly machines are a pain in the wang especially if you dont have the proper light, skins and a steady flat surface to roll on.

    In fairness rolling by hand is easier and faster, and you're hardly going to carry a rolling machine every where you go. In Amsterdam all the old people (40+) used rolling machines for their joints.

    It was actually for artritis
    I put the oxegen thing as a joke

    afaik most good tobacconists sell them

    if you go to a head-shop you'll most likely get a cone roller - which would be too big and silly for your grandfather.

    Then there are very good ones you can get, a small tin which holds the tobacco and in the roof there is a space for the skins and to the side houses the rolly machine. All of the places above will sell them.
