Bee hunting box
BigRog:
OK I lied
Here's another post here
Thanks for understanding
Maybe spend 4 bucks on that book.
I'm thinking that being a book on bee hunting you just might find some kind of plans for it.
Maybe the plans the guy who made this box used.
Hey This guy is selling this as a antique
That has nothing to do with what it would be worth to a beekeeper.
Notice the $49 starting price
See how many bids.
PS
I did send a question to the seller
about rough outside dimensions
Oh well guess I'm unethical.
But only for you guys

Phoenix:
Yes Robo, that's where I got the idea. I just wish I had dimensions or suggestions as to making the proper beelining box.
Robo:
Go to your library and borrow Keeping Beesby John Vivian or even go to Borders or Barnes & Nobles and look at it. There are detailed illustrations on how to make one out of a cardboard cigar box.
