Up to 13 cm (5.2 in)

The only roller capable of shaping a cone up to 13 cm (5.2 in). No other one goes that far.

Method by DdO

Just the paper, zero excess

The Dutch invented the cone; a French inventor perfected the roll — keep the essentials, remove the rest. The result: a finer cone and a cleaner finish.

General FAQ

Your questions, our answers.

Grouped by theme. Every question comes from someone who actually asked it.

Use & result

What legal herbs & botanicals can I use?

Any legal herbs & botanicals blend of your choice. The Roller is a precision craftsmanship tool: it does not encourage any consumption and is used within a strictly legal framework.

Is it really easier than rolling by hand?

Yes — that's the whole point. The Dutch invented the cone; a French inventor perfected the hand roll, a technique that takes years to master. The Roller reproduces it thanks to its patented mechanism:

  • you place the corners of your paper, it does the rest;
  • an even cone from your very first tries;
  • true consistency kicks in after 3 to 5 uses.
Does La Batte work with legal herbs & botanicals?

Yes. La Batte by DdO is a precision craftsmanship tool for shaping cones from dried botanical preparations, including legal herbs & botanicals where permitted. It does not encourage any consumption; final use is the responsibility of the user, in compliance with applicable laws.

How can I see the Roller in action?

Two levels of demonstration are available on our how-to-use page:

  • 4 short clips freely available — unboxing of the Original Box, unboxing of the Premium Box, manual rotation, and mechanical rotation (screwdriver attachment option). No sign-up needed.
  • Full 12-minute demonstration on individual request: three consecutive builds (classic cone, King Size, and King Size with a French-style tip), filmed in close-up using a dried aromatic plant for illustrative purposes.

The full demonstration is reserved for adults and accessible via our dedicated form. You'll receive the viewing link(s) within 24 business hours by email.

Craft & warranty

What is the Roller made of?
  • PETG for the body and structural parts — rigid, durable, heat- and impact-resistant.
  • TPU for the flexible rods, the heart of the patented mechanism.
  • No PLA, anywhere.
  • All printed in my workshop in Troyes.
Why PETG and TPU rather than other materials?

For durability. PETG holds up rigidity and impacts; flexible TPU lets the rods bend hundreds of times without breaking. The duo costs more than PLA — but PLA deforms at just 50 °C (122 °F), which rules it out for an object you wash and carry around.

How do I care for the Roller?
  • Rinse it under water or soak it, then air-dry. No dishwasher.
  • TPU rods are replaceable — a spare set comes in every box.
  • Everything is detailed in photos and videos in the "getting started" guide.
How does the warranty work?
  • Legal conformity warranty of 2 years (under French Consumer Code art. L217-3).
  • Warranty against hidden defects (French Civil Code art. 1641 to 1648).
  • Support handled personally: any part defective on delivery is replaced free of charge.
What if a part breaks later on?

All wear parts are replaceable. A spare parts shop (rods, screws, tongues, colors) will open after the 1,000 boxes are delivered — priority access and better rates for early buyers.

Is the patent really filed?

Yes. Patent INPI FR2606195, filed on May 11, 2026. Official number, verifiable on the INPI registry.

What exactly does the patent protect?

The internal mechanical principle — what makes the by DdO method reliable and repeatable. The technical details and dimensions remain my know-how: confidential.

Payment & withdrawal

Can I return my order?

Yes — you have 14 days after receipt to withdraw, with no reason required. Return shipping costs are at your expense (approx. €7-12 from France, €15-22 from Belgium/Luxembourg, €30-45 from Switzerland + customs declaration).

Box received in good condition at the Troyes workshop → full refund (product + original shipping costs) within 14 days.
