A local yearling newbe chose to deploy WBC hives, mainly for their looks and for their supposed insulation properties. However there is the frustration that accessories and gadgets from the manufacturers are often not available for the smaller WBC box. I wonder if it's practical to use National boxes within the WBC lifts? Testing a National crown board in my WBC shell that houses the pond pump I found that it fits easily. The National floor could be retained by simple modification of the WBC base-piece.
