Metal Runners 94p per pair
We’ve just purchased some tooling to improve upon our National Hive Roof design. Now roofs will be constructed using 1/2″ lock joints. Frames wise I decided that it was worth investing in a thin kerf saw blade for our table saw. Each cut will only waste 1.7mm instead of the usual 3.2mm. When machining up lots and lots of little parts (ie. frame bits) it will be much more economical if each rip through the timber only consumes 1.7mm….that’s the theory anyway and it’s backed up by me getting the plastic out to pay for an expensive saw blade…
We hope your bees will be happy in our hives and would welcome feedback in the new season…photos or comments please and we’ll set up a gallery area on the site.
All the best
Nick
Hi,
I hope you can help? I am after the following-
2 x supers (deal)
20 frames
The above is for a national hive and I would prefer them to be assembled. If this is possible could you let me know the cost?
Many thanks,
Richard
Hi Richard. I’m extremely busy and this means I’m concentrating only on hive orders at the moment. So I wouldn’t be able to do the frames for you until later in the season. As for the supers I can certainly do them for you but again the orders list is pretty hefty and currently the waiting list is around 4 weeks. Hope that helps. Nick.
You are quite right, plastic feeders are not very good, OK for emergencies but that’s all. I would like to buy one of your Ashforth feeders (what sort of cover? plastic or polycarb, and is it securely held in place?), and how much + p&p to Notts, and how long to wait?
