Please forgive the ignorance of this question, (and I swear I've attempted a google but apparently am using the wrong words)....
I have seen on documentaries, filmed in Europe it seems, hives in which the side seems to open up, and the beek can sit down and check frames by pulling them out, as oppose to lifting them. Is this a "national" hive? (The plans I've seen seem to indicate not, but maybe I'm reading them wrong) I love to try/build one, as in principle it seems smarter.
My back just cant take all that stooping, and my kids are complaining louder every year about having to help.
Thank you.
