Model Engineer is a British hobby magazine dedicated to model engineering. It was first published in 1898 by Percival Marshall, who was to remain its editor for over 50 years. It has been owned by Mortons Media Group since 2022. The magazine addressed the emergence of a new hobby — the construction of models (often working) and experimental engineering, largely in metal. It transcended class barriers, appealing to professional engineers, jobbing machinists and anyone interested in making working mechanisms.
