A device for making a smoking article is provided having a casing with an elongate structure and a cavity for receiving smokable material in use. The casing has an aperture for receiving a smoking article tube at an insertion end thereof. The aperture is connected to the cavity such that, in use, smokable material within the cavity is driven into the tube so that a smoking article is created. The cavity is arranged such that, at an end opposite to the insertion aperture, the cavity has a region of increased cross-sectional area in a direction perpendicular to the direction of tube insertion.
