Cigarette Tins Vs. Cases

Recently, I picked up cigarette tin emblazoned with the Daughters & Ryan Ramback logo.  D&R is known for quality tobacco and I use Ramback king sized filter tubes almost exclusively when I use a table top injector to make my own cigarettes.  The cigarette tin has a bold appearance that matches the packaging  of Ramback tubes and I picked one up for the heck of it, perhaps out of brand loyalty.

The Top-O-Matic T2 Tabletop Cigarette Injector: A Great Machine at an Exceptional Price

Back in 2009, due to both the bleak economy and draconian excises, I started making my own cigarettes. Initially, I injected tubes with a Premier Supermatic Twin hand held injector with varying results that were at best less satisfactory than factory made cigarettes. It was not long before I found that a roller provided me better cigarettes and, with the exception of a brief and equally dismal affair with another hand held inector from Gambler, I continued to laboriously roll my own-- until last week.
