A pre-rolled cone filling, packing, finishing, and extruding apparatus and methods adapted for making and extruding cigarettes, such as marijuana cigarettes, onto a catcher and applications thereof are presented. In one embodiment, an apparatus is comprised of a plate with a working surface, a rim portion, a plurality of tapered holes that hold pre-rolled cones, a base attached to the plate, a packing and crimping device with thin rods that fill, pack and crimp pre-rolled cones, and a closing and extruding device with tubes that close and extrude finished cigarettes. A method involves placing pre-rolled cones into the apparatus, pouring the filling material onto the plate and shaking it; inserting the thin rod of the packing and crimping device and moving it to pack and crimp the pre-rolled cone; inserting the tube of the closing and extruding device and closing and extruding the finished cigarettes out onto the catcher.

Apparatus and method adapted for making and extruding cigarettes, such as marijuana cigarettes, the apparatus comprised of a plate with a working surface, an extruding surface, a rim portion, a plurality of tapered holes that hold pre-rolled cones, a base attached to the plate, and having crimping means, tamping means, and extruding means for finishing cigarettes, these means provided as individual devices or a combination devices, the method comprising placing pre-rolled cones into the apparatus, pouring the filling material onto the plate and shaking it, inserting the crimping means and moving it to pack and crimp the pre-rolled cones, inserting the tamping means for closing the pre-rolled cones, and inserting the extruding means for extruding the finished cigarettes onto the catcher.

A device for burning smoking material and inhaling the resulting smoke is disclosed. The device can include an truncated conical member formed from a material having an internal elongated cavity extending from an open end to a closed end. The elongated cavity can be configured to receive a smoking material. The smoking accessory can include a filter disposed within the truncated conical member and defining the closed end. The filter can have a recess formed in a surface of the body along a curved face extending from the first end to the second end, the recess extending radially into the body. The smoking accessory can include a capsule containing a flavoring agent disposed within the recess.
