Japanese Honeybee Stacked Hive Japanese Stacked Hive 3-tier extension box + 1-tier landing/entrance box Wax moth repellent storage 5 years of beekeeping I've made and replaced many hives, and finally arrived at this design. The large boxes of the usual size are unexpectedly heavy due to the weight of the honey, making them impossible for women to lift. Working on a stepladder is also difficult. There are also excited bees, and while harvesting honey is enjoyable, it can be a challenge. Therefore, I created a box size that is easy to harvest, even for women and the elderly who may not have much strength. To keep it cool in the summer, a wire mesh is attached, and removing the bottom board allows the bees to live comfortably. Top board: 23 cm (length and width), 2.5 cm (thickness) Extension box: 23 cm (length and width), 2.8 cm (thickness) Height: 17-18 cm Landing/Entrance box: 23 cm (length and width), 2.7-2.8 cm (thickness) Height: 18-22 cm Entrance: about 3 mm Entrance bottom board: 17 cm (width), 26 cm (length), 2 cm (thickness) Handles are attached for easy lifting, as honey can be slippery during harvesting. Thinly shaved bamboo (naturally) is attached to the extension box to prevent the honeycomb from falling. The bottom of the entrance box is a drawer type for easy cleaning of droppings, and the entrance is openable/closable. The cedar wood was purchased at a home center. Please note that there may be slight dimensional errors due to warping of the DIY boards. Thank you very much for viewing. There are scratches and stains. Please check the photos for details.
