I am not sure if there is a difference is a joint roller and a blunt roller? Drewzilla484 sent in this review of his Kingpin Blunt Roller. It looks like a beast.

Grade: A-
Price: About $7.00 retail
Size: Just over 4.5 inches in rolling space.
Comments: I got this rolling machine for free with a sample pack of blunt wraps. For me rolling a blunt is a very ritualistic part of my day. I am not a fan of the idea of a blunt roller because I enjoy rolling by hand, however I will set my bias aside for this review.
The idea behind a rolling machine is much like the dollar bill trick and it tends to work just about as well. First thing you do is put your marijuana in the roller, close/spin it to compact the herb, then insert a rolling paper and roll again leaving you with the most perfect blunt most of the time.
One common problem with rolling machines (in my opinion) is that the rolling vinyl is just too long, leaving you with a loose blunt if you don’t REALLY load it up with 2-3 grams. It is almost impossible to roll a proper cigarillo with these machines. The Kingpin Rolling Machine was no exception. This thing is just too big.
I rolled with about 2.5 grams of quality herb. Unsure how much paper the roller would need, I used an entire Royal Blunts wrap. This was a decision I later regretted because it left me with a rather harsh blunt. When the wrap is almost all the way in the machine, you lick the glue strip to seal the blunt. It was at this point that I noticed that my Kingpin Roller was longer than my blunt wrap. I knew I’d be left with a bit of a mess but it should not have been too bad.
The finished product wasn’t that bad. It was well sealed, perfectly cylindrical and rather tight.
Overall the blunt came out really good. Although the Kingpin Roller won’t be my first choice when twisting up a blunt, it did do a good job and I can appreciate that. With a smaller rolling surface, this thing could possibly be the perfect blunt roller. –drewzilla484

Pretty interesting.
We have a joint roller that does it pretty well and makes a perfect roll.
Nice review.
Two-One: Yeah I use to use a joint roller. I actually had a metal one not plastic. Not sure if they even make metal rollers anymore.
The only difference between a joint and blunt roller is the size, the blunt rollers are about twice the size.
That’s what I thought. I have what I call a “jumbo roller” for rolling really big joints. I guess it’s really a blunt roller.
nice product review Drew, never been a fan of rolling machines especially for joints…always seems like they roll them so incredibly tight. I could see using these though if you are rolling up a gotti.
