Making a cake with the RONSON FOODMATIC!

...yikes!...the book that came with mine is 6" X 9" and is 47 pages. I have the installation book too, smaller and 19 pages. I think there was also a recipe book. Does your book show the shredder/slicer or the food processor? My unit has the processor which I believe indicates a later model Foodmatic, probably shortly before Ronson pulled the plug on production.

My book has the slicer/shredder in it along with the meat grinder, knife sharpener, blender , coffee mill ,ice crusher, cook and stir and deluxe juicer.  The back half of the book is recipes, thumbed through it even had one for avocado soup...

on the St George NV Craigslist...

...at a Catholic Thrift Store, $200...ad is dated 9/5 (sorry, I cannot paste URL on AOL)

"This piece dates back to 1970's. This is how the advertisement discribes it: "The one appliance that does the work of dozens...does it better, in less space. It mixes, blends, slices, shreds, grinds meat, grates, sharpens knives, girinds coffee, makes ice cream, juices oranges, crushes ice..it even cooks" "The power control unit closes flush with the counter top when not in use. The contoured storage trays pull out for easy access to any appliance attachment." Everything is built into a metal cabinet on wheels. Motor works great. Location: 93 West First South, Bunkerville, NV 89007. (3 miles from Mesquite, NV) Phone number: 702-346-7065 Sally Store is open Tuesday-Friday 10:00-2:00pm"

I've been watching 3 Foodmatic accessories currently on ebay, the food processor currently at @122.50 (way overpriced,) the cooker with no bids but a minimum $200 and a bid of $200 on the ice cream maker. I sure hope the person realizes you need the cooker in order to use the ice cream attachment. I wonder if that cabinet Foodmatic near Las Vegas is still available? If it's complete then it seems like a good deal.

ok, my last Foodmatic addition here

I can't believe this Foodmatic food processor just sold on ebay for a whopping $345.00...work bowl, pusher and blade. The shredding and slicing blades aren't included. Someone must have really wanted this. If a member purchased it...congrats.

PS...that bargain complete Foodmatic cabinet model near Las Vegas was sold to a buyer in New Jersey.
