Note the length dimension of 36 inch does not add up up a 4th multiple of 1.25 inch. Do you adjust the actual used length using the follower boards so that you never have a totally full hive full of top bars?
as they are home made any slack can be taken up using another piece of wood, my 4ft hive holds around 29. 35mm bars plus 2 follower boards plus 4x national frames
just thought of an idea, two L shaped brackets bent over to make hooks, a pair of pram wheels, roll wheels up-to legs fix brackets 4" below where the axle is, lift roll wheels under brackets go around other side lift and push like pram
can just see me wheeling it the 11 miles to allotment
