Hmmm, rather an optimistic price for that lot. A Nova 3000 in not much worse condition than that recently failed to get £150 on eBay. Low end kit like the Draper pillar drill or DeWalt band saw aren't really much of a pull either. Although the turning tools look worth a few bob.

Maybe the most interesting thing is the idea of having a chip extractor built in directly under the lathe bed. I've not seen that before, possibly for good reason. Surely it's not a great position for extraction, but excellent for loosing bits into ? I'll skip that one.

Just looked at the listing and I don't think that I would pay 1000.00 for it. All the kit looks well used.
