Title: wooden frame stand
Post by: Misko on August 02, 2008, 03:39:37 pm
I noticed that some of you don't like "frame hangers" and you are trying to make something more useful. In slovenia we use a wooden frame stand. I didn't se it in you shops and that's why I wan't to share some pictures with you. I find it very useful.

 Thank you for sharing. Do you carry this out to the hives and hang frames with bees on it? Do you pierce the first frame with the hangers and then if necessary lay the other ones against the first one.

How do the frames go on this?  Take a picture with a frame on it.  I want to make something I can use also.

Looks like the frames may sit in the spacers the same way they do in an extractor..

     That is cool.  I may have to try and make that myself.  I may have to use dowels instead, should work.  Thanks!

Dowels instead for what? Frame spacers?
You can use V shape nails or you san make them your self.

Thanks Misko. That is a neat item to have. It could be stored in an empty hive box in the bee yard with the other tools. Send more pictures of things that you or other friends in Slovenia use that we don't see much of over here.
