EDITORIAL VIEWPOINT
SPRING, pollen, love… many things are in the air at this time of year, but topping the list of things you absolutely do not want is probably dust.
With air pollution levels, especially in inner city areas, reaching terrifying levels and construction workers being particularly at risk, it has never been so important to do everything within our powers to minimise this.
Which is why we have created something of a bumper feature this month, taking a look at several of the industry’s leading dust extractors,
by RICHARD HOLLIS, Editor 3
including product reviews by Peter Brett of the V-TUF M-Class MINI PLUS, and Festool’s CTM MIDI 1. The feature begins on page 18.
Another theme for the issue this month is tool security. Peter Brett considers the measures construction workers can take to keep their tools and equipment safe from theft – turn to page 26 to read more.
