Evening everyone. I am running commercial hives and I have started grafting my own queens on a national frame with plastic cups I bought from Thorne. It is a bit of a struggle as the frame doesn’t properly fit in the hive.

I really like the jzbz cups but I am struggling to find a supplier that sells either the full frame that takes those kind of cups or at least the bars I can use on a deep frame.

How is everyone out there using the jbzb cups on commercial hive? Any idea where I can get a few of those bars? Can I make them myself?

Thank you
 
Thanks for your reply. Are there any drawings or suggestions on how to make them?
 
Just use a normal commercial frame with the self spacers shaved off
 
I was going to suggest buying a longer bar and shaving off a bit but then I realised how long the Commercial frames are.

On Cushmans site it says you can simply drill holes and push them in that way.
