Review on Complete 8 Frame Beehive Kit With Fully-Coated Beeswax Frames And Foundation Sheet (2-Layer) For Optimal Beekeeping Performance by Jon Brazil

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product for the money

A fairly heavy package, I couldn’t imagine what could make it so heavy. The box was filled with beautiful waxed sections, top and bottoms and pine pieces for the frame. The quality of the wood and cuts were flawless. The instructions were basically non existent but viewing the videos, I quickly figured it out. The dove tail joints easily and snugly fit together as the frames. The boxes have holes and screws but the frames use small nails. The instructions mention adding wood glue and I think it’s important. Also, I would worry about the frame wood splitting when nailing so I’m going to use a small drill to make holes to prevent wood splitting. Everything was there and with a few months till spring, I think this bee box is a winner.Contrary to other posts, this box was well coated with wax.
