£4 for a cappings tray anyone?

[Mellifera397]

While wandering the supermarket I found a pack of food containers for £4 (probably cheaper elsewhere) and saw that I could easily make a cappings tray from them. three top bars and a nail later I almost have a cappings tray, just need some mesh. Any suggestions for a cheap supply of SS mesh?

You can get a big stainless steel catering pan for as little as £9 (with free delivery until the end of August).
My 65mm deep version cost £11.

Bargain.


And even I didn't think that my construction of a basic 'bridge' (for locating the bottom frame lug onto) was a tricky task!

Dunelm mill sell a plastic storage box for 2.99 which is handy as a national sized frame rack.
