Rob, the design that you gave the site for shows the boards going crossways across hive, I thought that they ran lengthwise.
Brian, do you have any plans for the slatted bottomboard that you designed? I still don't get it. Does it matter where the dowelling is situated on the end of the frame that it attaches to? I mean, like 1/2 inch from the top, middle, lower 1/2 inch. Does this make sense to you, my request for instruction?I am the kind of person that requires indepth instructions, or pictures, I learn in strange ways and things must be taught differently to me. Once I learn, I never forget.
I think another concept problem I have is: it is indicated to have the doweling right below a frame. I know that in my hives the frames move either way a tiny distance. If I push all the frames to one end, there is a gap of at least 1/2 inch. HOw can it be assured that the frames will sit directly above a dowel. Still rather confused. Have a wonderful day, great life, and good health wishes to all. Cindi
