I so agree with the common appraisal on weight. If your hives are going to be static then onward consider ply. If you are going to move them about occupied then give all prior consideration to the weight. If i had known beforehand what one of mine (14 x 12!) weighed empty, I would not have...

I wear nothing on my hands and keep the latex for my legs :ack2:

I do not disagree. I am merely pointing out that with some prior warning, the time taken to read it (and i mean read/digest as opposed to skim) will be more productively spent if one had prior notoce as to what they could expect. I most certainly do not regret the day i could have spent doing...

Hello admin On a serious note (and it does happen occasionally with me) this thread should come with two things based on my own experience. A preface (a preview? A warning) It is possible to commence reading the thing without realising the sheer size. Before you realise it you are two hours in...

Oh no - hoist by my own petard! Going to spend the day coming up with: Best ( as in apt?) choice of username : ITLD no citation required? Regards FB

The Bektas ( not a kebab accompaniament) Brilliant! I was wondering how we'd get to 100 pages now that the galloping warhorse is running out of steam? Not medals but the Beek version of the Baftas - the Bektas? T= tantrum? Or tiara? Pad out at least 5 pages discussing a title? I'll make a...

Finished!! Bingo! Done it all 86 pages.:p!! Started at 8 am ish and other than brief interludes to eat/drink and be soundly thrashed by daughter at mario racing, have read all of it. Got the one conclusion - it's me who deserves the medal? Got to get some sleep now whilst considering all the...

I started reading this thread from scratch at 0830. Got to rooftops post stating it might exceed 30 pages!! It has risen from 60 odd to 72 whilst i have been going solid. Time now is 13:08. If there has been a subject provoking a more sustained and voluminous? Contribution, i struggle to think...

Couple of qUestions to complete an interesting OP. ( I totally understand everything previously said of course, but there might be gaps in others knowledge ?? :biggrinjester:) What is foundation wire? Is the EPB you refer to the wall/loft insulation board? What is the average feed rate when...

I will make Cedar hives when I can get hold of a Cedar tree and mill one up myself.... :biggrinjester: I cannot remotely contemplate the response from Mrs Bloggs when UPS turn up outside the house with a cedar tree and I say "Hello Dear - guess what"? I've only just finished sewing them back...

Yes admin, i totally agree that this is organised with a common theme. Stealing 8 hives is a logistical operation. Not only do you have to transport them (2 estates or big van) you need somewhere to locate the booty? Stable door bolting i know but for others crime prevention is now key. It has...

Pipe - this is the old adage of supply/demand. Ebay bargains only come with persistance . It seems you want "now" which requires wonga. Just a thought but two metres is a dodgy size to make 4 sides from unless well prepared. Suggest you invest in an ebay bargain roofrack first :sifone: Regards FB

Yes but not many DIY's have a ripsaw setup capable of making true right angle "cross cuts". hence my point about the limitation of most "chinglise" DIY store crosscut saws. Regards FB

Hello what length? do you want it cut to size ie for brood box sides or in longer lengths to cut yourself? You are beyond the scope of most "common " planers/thicknessers (max 250mm) so are relient on: 1. an Ebay "find" - ie somebody who does not know what they are selling or does not put a...

and just to close before I do go and celebrate new year with the real world I do believe that my posts (on this and the other forum) are constructive and positive. If you've got anything to add that conforms to this example and not mindless, childish comments concerning dummies and the like...

So why copy all my entry, copy my "simples" and copy my smillee.? If you agree, The easy way to agree with no amiguity is to say " I agree" simples ? The Chill message is yet another example of a wind up merchant. Time to grow up ?

It does not look like "agreeing" to me? If so there is a better way to explain yourself? What does "Don't flatter yourself mean?" I like to think I have got a grip? Especially on personal manners which is more than I can say for you? This seems to be a bit of a trait? I also think it is...

what has this got to do with my post ? So why quote it and mimic it?

Meg! - don't know you do I? :D

yep me too! the only problem is that most of the older generation coppers could not see any reason to hang around with the new generation chief constable robots who are only interested in stats. There is also the fact that how many coppers these days are younger than your youngest chiild? which...
