Well finally got round to removing it form the flat yesterday... in doing so I liberated:
14 feet of Ali beam - now cut into 2 equal lengths - once tidied wil make two 6.5ft of 150mm x 100mm W-shaped extrusion -side beams for something
8ft and 6ft rack sections
good selection of m10 and m12 bolts and nuts
24v battery pack and charger
motor and gear box, poss use for powered feed?
six 40mm dia x 30mm long 10mm bore nylon rollers and other nylon/ptfe blocks
2 aluminium castings/side plates about 4kg - will melt down i reckon
4 roller operated push switches - good for limit switches
2 microswitches (cover interlocks)
two charging plates used for recharging when the chair was docked, liberated 4 x 150mm x 10mm x 3mm brass strip, good for new gib strips for lathe
LEDs, piezo beeper, motor controller PCB

Not bad for 30min work (and 20 of that was with the hacksaw...)
