    Moving to Germany for a few years & retiring from beekeeping, for the moment.

    Hello It's an 8 frame radial manual extractor manufactured by Giordan. With fittings for tangential extraction, which I’ve never used. It comes with a stand. I’ve only used the extractor twice, it’s in immaculate condition. I’ve also got the original box. Eddie
