Have you seen smokers tapping a cigarette before lighting it, it’s pretty common here in Japan.
I’ve created a machine to automate that action. This is an ‘Automatic cigarette tapping machine’ .
I don’t smoke, but this is another quirky design by me!
This process takes time… About 20 minutes. But it’s worth it.

It is mainly built with Technic Series Parts.
