The Right Bunnings Spade For Your Yard
You may be a first time buyer of a Dunnings Spade. If so, you will probably want to go out and buy other pieces of high quality landscaping tools that you can add to your new garden or yard. While it’s certainly true that nothing in life comes for free, nothing in landscaping tools and equipment is inexpensive either. It’s not difficult to recognize good quality products when they arrive at your door – whether that’s in the shape of an ornamental stone or a compact power saw.
Before buying your Dunnings Spade though, it’s worth asking just what kind of work it does. Landscape gardening is far more complex than say gardening on a lawn. In fact, it requires far more specialized landscaping tools than lawn mowers or shooters. For this reason it’s important to first determine what kind of landscaping jobs you’ll be doing with your new equipment before you make any purchases. Here are some questions you need to answer before you do.
What type of landscaping work is being done? Are you planning to border a garden, fence a yard, or plant trees? If you’re looking for heavy-duty landscaping tools like chain saws and compactors then you’ll want a Spade that has a long reach. If you’re going to be using smaller tools like hand pickers and spades then you might be able to get by with a smaller Spade.
What size of landscape will you be working on? Some tools have larger attachments. For example, if you want to dig a hole to install a trellis then you’ll want a larger attachment. In contrast, a smaller attachment won’t be as useful for digging a large hole. You’ll also want to think about whether you’ll be buying a Spade that fits in your car or truck.
Can you use your existing tools on a Bunnings Spade? A Spade is designed to be used with other tools, so in order to ensure the most ease-of-use you should buy a set of landscaping tools that go with each other. This way you can quickly swap out landscaping tools when one doesn’t work anymore, or replace them completely when you decide you don’t like a particular brand.
What’s the most important component of the Bunnings Spade? The Bunnings Spade comes with a lawn mower and a shovel. Both of these tools are important to have, but what’s the difference between the two? A lawn mower has a spinning action that may not be very comfortable for some people. However, it’s easier to control than a lawnmower with a fixed speed. A shovel, however, works better for landscaping because it can reach into areas that a lawn mower cannot.
Do you have a lot of dirt around your yard? If so, then you’ll want a Spade that also has an attachment for a tiller. You can rent or buy a tiller and use it to till your garden. A tiller is an attachment for lawnmowers that can turn your grass clippings into fertilizer. If you have a small garden, you’ll probably only need to use a tiller once a year because it’s a fairly small amount of work, but it’s nice to have the option if you do have a larger garden.
Now that you’ve read this article, you’re probably ready to go shopping. You’ll probably want to start by checking catalogs at your local home improvement store and at big box retailers like Wal-Mart and Home Depot. If you want to save money, you can always buy second hand Bunnings Spades online. There are plenty of sellers on eBay who sell new and used landscaping tools, including Bunnings.
