I’ve had both and prefer the larger one as it takes the larger nails and staples. Keep the receipt as I have had to return a couple over the last 10 years (I use it a lot) but Screwfix replace it within the guarantee with no quibble.

I use 20mm nails for my frames but because I nail everything from the side I don’t use staples.

I can’t remember names but there were several so I will just do my research again to check on prices. When you fill in the form one of the questions asks if people visit your home on business.

I sell about 1000 jars from the shelves out side my house so I checked my policy and it doesn’t cover the footfall so I investigated other policies. Several did cover business use and a couple were cheaper than my existing so I’ll be changing companies come November.

Plenty of ivy over the last few weeks in Surrey, only the stuff that gets the sun is open at the moment with plenty more still in bud.

I would ask why it isn’t listed in approved products by VMD. 😁

I would say most of the comments are anything but negative. Posters who have the experience are trying to give positive pointers about the risks involved with starting a business when you know nothing (or very little) about that business. We all know of bee keepers who give up after a year or...

Price for a bucket would be between £3 & £3.50lb I think.

Sounds like he’s only got one marigold on as the one on the left wasn’t on right or maybe both on the left?

Oh, I have a battery powered blower in case there are a few lie-a- beds still in there

I have just over a hundred supers but extracted about 30 in the spring. This year has been my biggest harvest.

I use many different types, including Rhombus and RP’s design from the Dave Cushman site that I made in my early days. One of the ones I used today was a crown board with a 200mm square made of 10x20 strip with a 10mm hole at each corner and a piece of insect mesh stapled to it which was left to...

From her negotiations with them she seems hopeful.

Finished the final 5 super for this year at 6am this morning to avoid the bees that have found their way into my honey room. I was working in there yesterday and found that the room was slowly filling up with more and more bees. Decided to seal it all up and go back before dawn this morning to...
