Depends what you want.

E Z Bleed do a pressurised kit which enables one to do it on your own.

Or, although I have had one of the above for many years, Have one person pumping the pedal, the other operating the bleed nipples and keeping an eye on the reservoir level.
Required: One spanner, one length of plastic tube, one suitable container, (eg jam jar) and a supply of fluid (Probably DOT4).

Many years ago I put some bleed nipples with integral valves on a sports car, but still did it the old way!

I try to avoid the pedal pumping method wherever possible - older master cylinders too easy to finish-off. I prefer my old faithfull vacuum system. Draper do one, but you need an air compressor to operate it. Simply put, you click on a trigger and the air supply creates a vacuum in the bottle, and then clip the tube on the bleed nipple and open with a spanner. You can walk around and top up the reservoir when necessary. I will try to find a pic...

Here you go..
