    Hand-rollers: do you use you palm for rolling?

    I never make polls but I just wanted to make this poll for shits and giggles.
    It's starting to seem to me that many more people who hand-roll lössnus use their palms and fingers. (Including folks from scandinavia, judging by all the YouTube videos)
    But me on the other hand (no pun intended ) I learned to roll by watching a Norwegian friend. He only used fingers, and then mostly from just 1 hand.
    He did it a bit like the "hillbilly" in the Northener video but just a tad less "scoop and shove" style. More like "scoop huge amount, roll 2 seconds, shove". He didn't even really "tuck", he'd just plaster the whole front portion of his upper teeth and gums with snus.

    So yeah I've never used my palm. Seems to me you needlessly make your palm dirty too. How 'bout y'all?

    I actually make a small "cup" with my palm and shape it with my fingers. It comes out flat on one side and rounded on the other. Flat side against the teeth/gums.....its perfect, for me anyway.

      I make a little tower in the tin.
      grab it and transfer it to my left palm.
      add or take of snus so that it is the right size.
      bake it to a flat american fottball size and stuff it in under my upper lip.

      Some people make the barrel (tønna) and compres it a lot.
      I don't care, I like it when it's a little juicy.

                EDIT: sorry just read the first post, though we were talking rolling papers.

                I bake with my palm/fingers and pack it together with my thumb and index fingers.
