Absolutely. The electronicc components can be used for a HV
transformer,
spare HV caps, and the timer is useful as a general purpose timer for a
lawn
sprinkler or oven reminder....for when your daughter is learning to
cook..

The cabinet can be rigged with rubber bands and used to trap small
animals in the garden

The line cord can be used for many projects, or as a useful
strangulation
tool for serial killers...

There's gold in them thar microwave ovens !!!!!!
