    My guess would be that you have an older iPad and the apps have updated to take advantage of hardware available on newer models (or new apps) which in turn takes resources from other areas and slows down the entire thing.

    Frame for wired excluder

    Has anyone made a frame for a wired queen excluder? The only way it looks doable is by routing a slot or something but that seems over complicated so I wondered if anyone had done something more straight forward?

    Anyone ever try one of these to move supers/brood about? They're designed for fishing tackle but seem to be perfect for the job? h**p://www.powawalker.co.uk/index.htm
