Cannabis enthusiasts know that a good rolling tray is essential gear. But quality rolling trays can be expensive to buy. If you want to save money and create a custom tray suited to your needs, then a DIY cannabis rolling tray may be just what you’re looking for.

Rolling trays provide a convenient, portable surface for handling cannabis products. With so many sizes and styles available, it's easy to find trays that fit your lifestyle.

Benefits of Building Your Own Rolling Tray

Creating your own rolling tray has some great advantages:

  • Customize the size and shape - Make it as large or portable as you prefer
  • Decorate with your unique style – Choose colors and textures that you like
  • Add specialized features - Build in storage, crumbs catchers and tool holders
  • Budget-friendly - Craft your own for a fraction of the cost

What You’ll Need

The basic supplies for a DIY cannabis rolling tray are:

  • Base - Cardboard, foam board, wood or other materials can work
  • Cutting tool - Scissors, X-acto knife, rotary tool
  • Adhesive - Glue, tape, sticker backings
  • Covering - Decorative paper, contact paper, photos, fabric

How to Build Your Custom Rolling Tray

Building your own rolling tray is a straightforward project. Follow these simple steps:

1. Cut the Base

Use thick cardboard and measure out to desired dimensions. Allow for edge strips that can contain materials. Cut out the shape with an X-acto knife or scissors.

2. Add Design Elements

Now for the fun part! Cover the base with scrapbook paper, photos, fabric or other decorative materials using adhesive. Get creative with textures, colors and personalized touches.

3. Attach Edges

Cut strips of foam board, cardboard or wood to edge height you want. Glue strips around the tray base perimeter to keep contents contained.

4. Apply Protective Layer

Seal and waterproof the tray bottom with contact paper, shelf liner, or clear packing tape. This lets you wipe the surface clean easily.

 

And that’s it! Enjoy your new custom rolling tray and all the benefits it offers over basic store-bought options.
