Building Your Kit
Start with the essentials: lighter, papers or a pipe, grinder, and storage. Add cleaning supplies and comfort items as your budget allows. Keep everything in a smell-proof bag or case, and check your supplies monthly. Replace lighters before they die, restock papers before you run out, and clean your pieces regularly so they are always ready to go.
