Buying used machinery can make or break a shop — but knowing what to look for (and what to avoid) isn’t always obvious. In this episode of Machine Tool Maniac, I’m joined by Will Mund, owner of Greenlight Machinery, to break down the do’s and don’ts of purchasing used equipment.

Will shares his journey into the manufacturing world, what led him to start Greenlight Machinery, and the biggest lessons he’s learned helping shops source reliable machines without draining their budgets. Whether you’re running a one-man garage shop or managing a growing production floor, this conversation will give you practical insights on evaluating used machines, avoiding costly mistakes, and making smart investments that keep your spindles turning.
