I Can’t Believe I’ve Only Just Discovered These Beehive Frames!

In this video we talk about pre wired assembled frames and how this will change beekeeping in the U.K.!
Now it’s important to note this is not a new idea or design…beekeepers across the world have already been using these frames and this is how the majority of them keep bees on.
Building frames from scratch is something we only do in the U.K.
yes it’s a cost effective way of purchasing them but it takes so much time. Dropping the wax foundation in place and using the transformer takes seconds!
This is a game changer for me and our honey farm.

Hi, you can just connect the poles one time to the 2 ends of metal rope (usually there are nails there). And if you have the foundation non well flat you can put during the job over the frame a wood plank or somtingh flat with certain weight. BR Ugo

I wire my Langstroth brood frames with the wire going horizontally. Pretty well bulletproof. When I've used pre-wired foundation I find the wax is nowhere near as robust and has a bit of a tendency to come out at the bottom, particularly if the bees prefer a traverse gap at the bottom of the comb. I much prefer wired frames, except in shallow Langstroth supers where I don't wire at all. Mediums I use wired frames.

If you make a jig for the frame, you could have the connectors already connected and just have a power button your press, then when you let off it stops the connections, then its drop in press button take the frame out, like 2 or 3 seconds per frame. To explain how you connected the pos and neg, top and bottom, you just make a wood holder the same size as the frame, then put metal contacts top and bottom at opposite ends of the frame, then have a button on the positive side so drop in the frame press the button its done, next

Just done a quick calculation and inc p+p these are about £33 delivered for 10 where as thornes are £35 plus p+p and on ebay for second frames plus wired wax its about £28 and you still have to build both those up and to clean and change wax is a pain on normal frames so id say this i a no brainer. Can you just re heat the wire till the old comb drops out then warm new foundation in? I think that would be a huge selling point youve missed if im right.

Neat promo vid. Question. Lower bottom bar frame joint, what joint does/doesn't it have? You moved too fast, I saw a horizontal staple and presume the frame was jig made with the bottom bar and then stapled. The national frame construction sucks for putting together. The Langstroth hoffman frame joints are different and similar to the frame shown. The availability of cut down sheet wax is a good thumbs up. Premade frames are an attractive route.

I have better photos on the website if that helps? I would have thought they are jig built. These factory’s knock these out by the millions! Can’t see them doing it any other way. Glad you approve 😊👍🏻
@user-go9hb4td8j
@user-go9hb4td8j 2 месяца назад
Yes, the images did help. Zooming in showed quite a lot. The contruction is very practical, no joint indents on the top bar, wider joint on the top side bar, staple fixing downwards on the top to side bar joint. Horizontal staple with no joint for the single bottom bar. Grooves/channelling on top and bottom bars to recess the wire. Spaced holes, I could not see any wire plugs. I presume all joints have been glued. Neat construction. Tip, when applying heat to wax a simple wooden board under the wire, wax sheet size, would hold the sheet in place if excess heat is applied and prevent a cheese wire effect.

I suppose it will be down to the cost of these compared to the traditional ones. Time saved is of course worth something but if you have the time, and room for some extra cash in your pocket, then some might prefer that.
