As of writing this the western edge of the Kerry Ridge Fire is about 5km from our farm.  Due to this being the worst bushfires in Australia’s history, our heroes in Rural Fire Service are severely overstretched.  As such, the RFS is extremely busy trying to fight the fire fronts and saving homes, they don’t have time to attend every single spotfire that is caused by an ember attack.

So as we can do our small part and try to protect  our farm from Spotfire/Ember attack, we converted my 22 year old bush-basher paddock-bomb Ford Courier Ute into a Spotfire Fighting Vehicle.

There are kits set up to do this already available, but they are all hideously expensive.  This video shows you how to set up your own for a fraction of that cost.

Enjoy, and stay safe this horrible bushfire season.
