- 16 a mix of Commercial, National, 14 x 12, Dadant and a Warre
I plan to change from National double/single brood to 14 x 12. As I had a lot of National top and bottom bars (M**semore) I bought Hoffman 14 x 12 side bars (Th**nes). I found the two are not compatible in that the side bars are thicker than the slot in the top bar and had to be "modified"
Has anyone else had this (minor) problem? Also established 14 x 12ers which top bar do you prefer? DN4 or DN5.
