The Frank Method begins by simply gravity-filling the bowl. You may scoop or sprinkle, but never press the tobacco into the bowl. Tap the bowl periodically to settle the tobacco. The tobacco can be shredded or torn before-hand to help the tobacco drop into the bowl.

At this point all further instructions are for right-handers. Left-handers should simply reverse the directions.
