The Emco Unimat SL is a small hobby engineer's lathe first made available in the 1950s. It features bed rails made from parallel round bars, a simple flexible design, and a huge range of accessories and add-ons which make it astonishingly versatile.

I'm between workshops for a few months, and I picked this lathe up second hand as a project I can work on with minimal space and equipment. In this video I spend some time cleaning the lathe parts to make sure it will work as perfectly as possible when it all goes back together.

Many thanks to Paul at The Knackler's Workshop for his series on a similar lathe. He really helped me know what I was getting myself into, and where to start. If you're impatient to find out more, go and watch his series while you wait for more videos from me.
