When you need to replace your clamps or buy a new crosscut saw, how often do you consider looking at used woodworking machinery first?

Buying second hand machinery gives you the opportunity to address your woodworking needs without breaking the bank.

At JJ Smith, we have a wide range of used and second hand woodworking machinery that has already been used and tested, meaning that they are quality assured and ready to go to a new home.

Here’s our top five reasons why you should buy second hand machinery:

 


Affordability

By choosing to buy used woodworking tools, you can save a substantial amount of money compared to purchasing brand-new equipment, meaning that you can acquire high quality machinery for a fraction of the original cost/RRP.

Availability

You shouldn’t expect to encounter as many delivery hold-ups, such as stock availability or back order delays, meaning that you could get your order faster. Additionally, browsing the used woodworking machinery market means you can find tools including rare or discontinued equipment which might better suit your needs.

Investment Quality

Similarly to a new car, new tools, particularly heavy machinery, can lose their initial value quickly. By buying used woodworking machinery, you are not only saving money but also making a smart investment as you are likely to be able to resell the equipment for a similar price.

Environmental Benefits

Buying second-hand or used woodworking machinery reduces waste, helps to promote sustainability and demonstrates your business’ eco-friendly practices. Moreover, extending the life cycle of woodworking machinery and tools keeps them out of landfills, meaning that you are contributing to a greener economy.

Tested Performance

Used woodworking machinery has already been tested and used in its field meaning you could get more insight into the tool’s performance and what to expect before purchasing it.

 


Buying used woodworking machinery has a number of advantages, from significant current and future cost savings to waste reduction. Whether you're a seasoned woodworker or just starting out, investing in used equipment enables you to stretch your budget further without compromising on quality.
