Before second hand woodworking machinery is resold, the machine will be put through various inspections and tests to ensure it is performing reliably and safely. A thorough refurbishment process means you can invest with confidence, knowing the machine will reliably perform for many more years to come.

When choosing your used woodworking machinery, consider the following factors to make sure the machine matches your needs:

1. Define your requirements

Be clear on the types of projects, material types and the production volumes required. This ensures the machine you select will match your workflow and requirements.

2. Assess your workspace

Consider the machine’s physical size, safety requirements, and integration with existing equipment. Proper planning helps you maintain a safe, efficient working environment.

3. View before you buy

When possible, review the machine in person to confirm it operates as expected. At JJ Smith, you can visit our Liverpool showroom Monday-Friday to view and purchase a range of used woodworking machinery.
