    Remove a paper match from the book.
    Split the match stick all the way to the (unburnt) head of the match. This gives you two long pieces of paper hinged by the head of the match.
    Insert the roach between the pieces of paper and close them.
    Give it a twist to keep the ends closed.

    Jefferson Airplane picture

    Part of the match broke off when I put the "roach" in (actualy a cigarette butt). Which remides me of a construction detail. Roll up the match and unroll it before splitting it. That help it be more flexible.

    Or, get tough finger tips. That the easiest roach clip.

    If that's a Jefferson Airplane then what's the equivalent Jefferson Starship?

    A Jefferson Starship is not quite as good as a Jefferson Airplane and so is not used very much.

    I quit using those when a friend got a nasty lip burn from taking a massive hit when the match head ignited.
    After that I'd just use a rolled-up matchbook cover.

    I had thought this, what if the match head lit up in your face. In your stoned state, it would mean one hell of a burn

    I've never understood roach clips either...It must be an American thing.

    That is from a little Jorma Kaukonen bio I found from his Fur Peace Ranch website. Just a fun fact I suppose.
