## Abstract

A rolling paper with an attached thin heat-resistant wire is manufactured and connected at the base of the rolling paper, by means of an adhesive or other substance or manner that allows the wire to be connected to the rolling paper. Wire holders can also be inserted into the rolled tobacco or cannabis product after being rolled. Wire holders may be one or more pieces, where multiple pieces can be connected together to form the wire holder assembly. Insulation or a non-heat-conducting component may be part of the wire holder, intended to be held by the user to avoid discomfort from a heated wire, or to have residue from the rolled product while smoking. Specialized dispensers hold the wired rolling papers, or the wires.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A wire insert fora rolling paper, comprising:
a first portion having a length substantially equal to a width of the rolling paper that extends from a second end to a first end of the wire insert:
a second portion having a length substantially equal to the width of the rolling paper, the second portion coupled to the first portion at the first end of the wire insert, and extending along the first portion from the first end to the second end, spaced apart from the first portion;
wherein the first portion is configured to be on a first side of the rolling paper and the second portion is configured to be on a second side of the rolling paper; and
a thermal insulator on an extension of the first portion at the second end of the wire insert that is configured to extend beyond an edge of the rolling paper at the second end when the rolling paper is inserted between the first portion and the second portion;
wherein the wire insert is attached to the rolling paper.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The wire insert of claim 1, wherein the second portion has an engagement feature that engages the first portion at the second end of the wire insert.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The wire insert of claim 1, further comprising a third portion having a length substantially equal to the width of the rolling paper which extends from the second portion at the second end of the wire insert along the first and second portions and is configured to be on the first side of the rolling paper.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The wire insert of claim 3, wherein the first and third portions are substantially parallel to each other.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The wire insert of claim 1, further comprising further comprising an extender that is configured to engage the thermal insulator and is configured to be held in a hand of the user.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The wires insert of claim 5, wherein the extender comprises a hand grip.

### Claim 7

A method for making a rolling paper for rolling a cigarette having a handle, comprising:
providing a rolling paper, the rolling paper having a width;
providing a wire insert having:
a first portion having a length substantially equal to the width of the rolling paper, wherein the first portion extends from a second end to a first end;
a second portion coupled to the first portion at the first end and extending from the first end to the second end along the first portion;
a thermal insulator disposed on an extension of the wire insert, wherein the extension extends from first portion at the second end; and
placing a bottom edge of the rolling paper between the first portion and the second portion of the wire insert.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, further comprising:
attaching the rolling paper to the first portion of the wire insert on a first side surface of the rolling paper; and
attaching the rolling paper to the second portion of the wire insert on a second side surface of the rolling paper.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method of claim 8, wherein providing the rolling paper further comprises providing the rolling paper with a gummed material along a top edge of the rolling paper that is opposite the bottom edge.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, wherein providing the wire insert comprises providing a hook at the second end of the second portion that engages the first portion at the second end.

### Claim 11 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, wherein providing the wire insert further comprises providing a third portion that extends from the second end of the second portion to the first end of the wire insert along the first and second portions of the wire insert.

### Claim 12 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, wherein providing the thermal insulator comprises providing a snap-together handle including a first half and a second half that snap together on the extension.
