Shanevrr:
Does anyone have experiance with this and is it cost effective?  My questions are how long does it last,  what does it look like long term,  do the bees use it all, 

Whats the best method and how much should you do at one time?

Shanevrr:
nice instructions mr bush....but can you tell me this.  how long does it last,  and what does it look like long term,

Michael Bush:
I started doing it in 2007.  So far so good.  Most of them look like new.  I can't say what they do in the long term until I get there.  :)  But reports from others are it lasts as long as the box.

Shanevrr:
Thanks,  where can I find material?  I looked at mannlake and didnt see anything.  I have 100 lbs of beewax,  so I guess I need pariffin, and gum rosin for rest.  I getting ready to build my tank.  Im going for 6 deeps at once.  Any special features you wish you would have done?
