On the bench, about two feet to the right of the press, fasten a board two feet long to the edge, letting it project an inch above the bench.
Place your cutting rack frame against this board on the bench with the bottom board in it and the end toward you.
Take the pan of pressed corn, and turn it upside down on the bench between the press and this cutting rack. A sharp rap will drop the corn out of the pan.
Lift this sheet of corn, put the back end into the cutting rack, bend the sheet into a bow shape so that the front end will go into the rack. Then press down the center.
Hold the straight edge by the handle in the left hand and draw quickly a well sharpened knife (Stock No. [2009-1]) toward you along the straight edge to make the cut, passing it through the slots in the sides of the rack. To cut the other way, turn the rack around.
To remove the pop-corn from the rack, lift up the rack frame, leaving the bottom board. The corn will fit tight enough to be lifted with the frame. Set the frame down on the bench to the right. Place your right hand on the pop-corn and lift off the rack with your left hand.
