Our desire to live close to nature means that many homes are built in areas that are at risk of bush fire. There are several elements that increase the bush fire risk to our properties and families, and it pays to assess and attempt to mitigate these risks well in advance.

Mitre Saws

When choosing a mitre saw, blade size is one of the key factors. 8", 10", and 12" are the most common mitre saw sizes. The larger the diameter of the blade, the longer the cuts it can make.

Circular Saws
01:11
Circular saws come in a few different sizes (based on the diameter of the saw blade), from 4" up to the most common size, 7-1/4".
They also are typically rated by horsepower and/or RPMs of the saw blade. When choosing a circular saw, a good rule of thumb is to buy one that hashigher horsepower than other models of the same size.

Sanders
02:58
The most common type of sander found on store shelves today - and easily the most versatile. The orbital part of the name comes from the action of the sanding disk. The random part comes from the elliptical motion the disk makes in addition to the orbit. The Black & Decker Mouse is probably the most prominent example of a random orbital sander.

Jigsaws

A jigsaw's adjustable base plate allows the operator to make bevel cuts up to 90 degrees - essential for mitre cuts. A dust bag collects sawdust and prevents it from obscuring the cut line, as well as maintaining a cleaner, more pleasant working environment.
