Yes, Matt...UNIMAT used to market quite actively in the US in the '60s/'70s. They had ads in MR and RMC almost monthly and several of the LHSs here stocked the multi-function units and accessories. They were much better promoted than Sherline, which was sold more as a Pro tool (more$$$ for Sherline, but percieved better quality). Think there was some financial trouble in the early '80s (?), and they disappeared. Always wanted one of them, though had NO clue how to use one ! Bob C.
