Title: Popperette done and shipping today
Post by: mrsoda on April 21, 2009, 10:36:28 am
The popperette is done  and he is shipping with the air reel today, Tom will have on friday, and bring it over to the house, He did a great job on it, All hand painted graphics, He said that the insides are as nice as the outside. I had him use a silver sparkle paint on it, most have a hammer tone finish. do not know how he got the plastic popcorn chute to look so good, it was bad as you can see in the photos. He added a switch inside so you can just have the light on for display. Will take more photos when i get it in the house.

That is awesome! :happydrinkers:

Did your machine already have the glass bowl on the top or is that something they came up with?  I need one for my Popperette.

Thanks

Welcome to the Popperette club.  You may now have an executive washroom key and after a month we will teach you the secret handshake 8).

You will enjoy the machine.  

Is it for display or will you use it?  Either way, you'll like it.

Jeff,

You might want to get the decal for the top plexi piece (Popcorn Each Order Popped Fresh).  Kim at custom records sells them.

I think he said after he took the photo, he hand painted that on the plastic top, will send new photos when i get it, have to work hard this week to save money to buy tom  a lot of sushi. He loves to go out to eat after he brings the machines,

Looks Great Jeff!!  I love those graphics... what a great idea to "spruce it up"

he must charge and arm and a leg to hand paint that stuff... but hey I guess that is why we work to make $$$ to spend it!

Looks awesome, can't wait to see some more of the outside and inside..

John

Another gorgeous machine to add to the collection, Jeff!  Great job on the restoration as well!
