Good value at 1p!

A quick scrub up, paint job over filler and metal and it's a good 'un. On epay, with a starting price of goodness knows how much, in a week or so!

The gears might be good, still, or could be re-hardened and tempered if it was actually hot enough to affect them.

The plastic tailstock handle and the changegears appear to have vaporised. The drive gears might have been protected by being surrounded by the headstock casting, wouldn't bet on it though.
