What did you do in the 'workshop' today

[E&MBees]

Not so much what I did in the workshop as what I did for the workshop. Made and fitted these cool doors. View attachment 23867

How big is it? Not that I have shed envy!!

Workshop envy.

That's quite a workshop, SWMBO would have kittens if I tried to get that in the garden!

Made a couple of roofs and a couple of floors yesterday and a new nuc today...... bloody winter, can't wait to get back to getting the odd sting or two.

Fortunately I have the full support of SWMBO as part of the shed is for her. I can't wait till it's finished and get the use of it. Looking forward to making some hives and nucs and such.

Loving that workshop.

Thanks. It's been fun building it but I'll be glad to get it finished. Now it has doors I can get the floor, walls and ceiling done. Hope to have it done by April.

Loving that workshop.

Yes ... definitely shed envy here ... my workshop is lovely .. 20' x 20', double glazed, double doors, former concrete prefab garage that has been fully insulated and the original roof replaced with a timber and roofing felt job, big picture window at the front ... wood burner.

Unfortunately, it was taken over and fully occupied by my son and his engineering machines and 3D printers ... I get one small corner to store my honey ... how did that happen ? I struggle squashing everything into my garage ...

Be warned ... shed sharing has its risks ... grab your space as soon as it's up or ....

I would love a workshop like that. One day perhaps, when the kids have left home...

Wow, 20 x 20 is a goodly space, this is 12x30 but only 12x20 will be insulated. Thankfully the offspring are all grown up and housed elsewhere so we get to keep this new toy for ourselves.

I was going to say the same about shed sharing. The wife and I share the garden shed - wife's gardening tools one side my mechanical tools the other and it's always a bit of a battle as we both tend to spread!!
My 12x12 "bee shed " is all my own

It's 12x30 or 3.6 x 9 in new money.

My double garage and attached workshop are so cramped with gear I have built this winter I can hardly move. Once the spring is here I can see me putting all the bait boxes out, hives out etc and start building again. But till then I have ground to a halt.

A hundred brood frames prepped ready for wax, another hundred to do tomorrow. I quite enjoyed the therapy.

Getting roofs ready today

 

[Somerford]

Spent the day constructing heavy duty hive stands (my own design) and coating them in creocote - I should've taken a photo to share. Also roofs and re-filling cleaned frames with foundation.
It was a bit chilly out for sure today - lovely and fresh though.
