Important Announcement

After nearly 35 years, Model Engineer and Model Engineers’ Workshop will be combined to create an exciting new magazine, Model Engineer & Workshop. The new magazine will feature increased pagination, enabling us to cover the full breadth of our incredible hobby—from steam power to gas turbines and from treadle lathes to CNC milling, and beyond.

This merger represents an opportunity to deliver a more varied publication, blending the incredible heritage of Model Engineer with the tools and techniques focus of Model Engineers’ Workshop.
