My hive stand

[VEG]

Thought i would show you what i did with the pallets.
I can fit 2 hives per stand with space in the middle to put frames or even a nuc.

Thats the tidy end of the garage lol. The other end is full of bee hive parts.

I like how you can drop a frame in for inspections

 

[victor meldrew]

I drop my frame into a suitable sized box (should the queen be on there she can't drop in the grass!).
I'm sure you could cobble up such a box which would fit in between rails with room to insert a frame or two ?.

Is the stand rebated so hive sits in or does the hive just sit on top.
thanks

 

[VEG]

Mine sits on top but will be strapped to the hive stand. Didnt put a rebate as i thought it would hold water.

Why cant i see the picture of the stand? Would love to see it,

There you go it got lost when the site went down.

Wow you need a chain to keep the lid on your hive!! wouldn't want to meet your bees.

Just kidding, nice job on the stand.

The strap is to stop any kids from pushing the hive over and then running off. It takes me a few minutes to undo when suited up.
