What size is right for me?

Did you know the only difference in measurements between 10 frame and 8 frame boxes is the width? 8 frame equipment is narrower than 10 frame, and not always compatible with other 8 frame equipment as dimensions vary slightly by manufacturers. 10 frame equipment offers more space for brood and honey production.

    Quality but short on nails

    Posted by Jeff on Jun 11, 2024

    Wooden ware good fit and quality. Short on larger nails for hive body build. If 9 nails/corner x 4 corners---20 nails will not cover it. Simple solution as that I have other nails at home. But may be helpful to the next beekeeper with ample supply of nails sent in packaging. Frame building easy, plenty of small nails.

    Options needed

    Great product. My only gripe is with the ordering process. Why can’t options like black foundation and screened bottom boards be offered?

    Hive box

    The sides weren’t leveled. The girls will need lots of propolis to plug the gap.

    Worked well

    Posted by humblebee on May 15, 2022

    Easy to assemble. Kit works well and makes it easy to get all the pieces you need. I have ordered them in the past and will probably order them in the future. Only issue this time was that the brood box only came with 10 nails which certainly isn't enough for the 30 holes... Never had that problem before.
