Very well made ... mind you, the cost of fence posts these days is eye-watering !
Here's my single hive stands ... Made of standard CLS from Wickes at £3.75 for 2.4m.. Used to be five lengths for £6 ! And pallet wood. They were costing me about £5 each to make. Coated with sadolin ...the oldest one is 9 years old now and still going strong. Never had one topple over. No joints or tenons - just glued and screwed.

Going even more low-tech, I didn't even use glue. I'm using concrete blocks for stability before I even add the weight of the hive.
