    Just imagine: a little boy/girl decades ago hanging in the neighborhood growing up visiting a little shop everyday that they love to visit and saying hi to the shop owner to brighten his day and grab a handful of candy... and now decades later, the machine is being restored to its former glory and reviving a small piece of history. Thats my favorite part of these videos is imagining the story and history behind the littlest trinket.

      I saw and have painted them in several colors. Red, yellow and a blue hammered metallic look were the most common here in the Midwest. A few green hammered metallic look, but they were sort of rare. For a collector they had me do one that was chrome plated on outside shell. Personally I didn't like the look. But they had the money so I did what they wanted.

It may prevent bacterial growth, but I'm not sure there are too many problems with bacteria issues in bulk M&Ms. Having worked on industrial food processing equipment for years has taught me that cooking spray as a machine lube causes way more problems than it solves.

      I’m no expert, but powder coating is just what it sounds like. It’s a powder coating that hardens when baked. It’s much more durable than painting, but it’s also much more expensive to do, which is why painting is more common. Not everyone has access to the powder coating tools, but anyone can grab some paint and get to work.

    When I was a child there was one of those stores that had everything, back when Mom and Pop businesses ruled the USA. At the storefront there was a bank of these vending machines and my brother and I really wanted some of what they had. We got some change from mom as she waited to pay the clerk and went for what we wanted but got a shocking surprise. The dime we used opened the floodgate and stuff just poured out! We told the clerk then asked if we could have two small bags and permission to plunder. I remember thinking this was so fantastic, little bubbles with glittering rings and small toy cars. Believe it or not, many of the things were made of metal!
