Thanks to Larry and all of his help, knowledge, and a few phone calls - I popped my first bag of popcorn a little while ago. Took a lot of work cleaning but when that first kernal popped it was all worth it - thanks again Larry !!!

Awesome.. What a story and what a machine! Got a great collection going there.... Now you need some of those old cardboard popcorn boxes you see on ebay every so often and some old movies poster to decorate around it! Congrats on such a great score!  |

OUTSTANDING! I remember the joys of my first Popperette-popped bag of popcorn. It's very exciting to it work for the very first time especially if you had to do some leg work to get to that point. Again, congrats and have fun!  |

Anytime Bob. I'm glad it worked and you are happy. Enjoy the popcorn machine, or should I say your kids and their friends will enjoy the machine.  Larry |

AH Yes... it's is such a joy to see it working... I absolutly love mine, and I bet I've run 100 backs of Corn out of it already... Are you using Cocanut oil? it's the best that I've tried so far... just gotta preheat it before use is the only downfall... but not sticky!!!
For anyone looking to see one in motion, I have a video of mine on my website, you can see it run from start to finish...
Welcome to the club!

That is great. I hope I can find the parts to complete mine someday. These Popperettes just don't show up that often. |
