Every winter I end up with frames all over the place as I clean/repair/assemble them, and I never know quite how to manage them.
I've got a variety of storage boxes I use, but none of them are quite right - they're either much bigger than they need to be, slightly too small for 10 or 11 frames, a good size for brood but not super (or vice versa), don't have lids or have holes in them so not bee-proof, are unreasonably expensive...
Has anyone found the holy grail of storage boxes for their spare frames and can share with me their secrets?
