It is in its original box with tools and manual. I don't actually know what model it is but it looks a bit like a emco unimat sl. Cheers tb

between £100 and £250 by the look of completed items on ebay, depending on what is withit and which way the wind is blowing.

Quite a capable little machine - I vaguely recalll a couple of guys building a pair of Conway's - 3 1/2" ng mainly on a unimat so don't discount it straight away.

Building 2.5" scale 5" gauge Hunslet, 3.5" Fowler diesel (battery) running! Bought 5" Marie E to run.
