Can we take a minute to appreciate how lazy he is that he took an empty cigarette cartridge, and just drops loose tobacco in it, instead of investing a few bucks into one of the injectors that packs a cig in 2 seconds. I used to make my own cigs when I smoked because it was insanely cheap, and if you took a spare hour, you could make 4-5 packs easy.
Just some quick math: 200 tubes cost on average 5$, that is 10 packs.
Good tobacco, enough for 200 tubes is roughly $80.
A cheap injector in $7-10.
For less than $100, he could make himself a carton in 2-3 hours, could be cheaper based on his area and taxes, and even cheaper if he used crappy leaf.
Now credit is due since he is technically making his own cigs, but without properly packing them the draws will be really weak.
