IBM Model M's melting point is too low to protect against people that abuse the pen holder as an ashtray tho, and mine got shipped to me without protective packaging lol. It works, but a bolt mod and a destructive deep clean was necessary. Yes, Model M's can get permanent dents and turn yellow if you put enough lit cigarettes on it. Restoration videos don't show Model M's as abused as this one.
