Product Details

Description

We pride ourselves on the premium materials and milling of our unassembled boxes. All of our lumber is sustainably harvested from FSC certified forests. Made with quality in mind, each Ponderosa Pine plank is sliced precisely for lightweight and lasting durability. Made in the USA.

Our most popular grade. Tight, solid knots, small pitch pockets and small, tight cracks are acceptable for this grade. Imperfections that interfere with the structure and functionality of the box are not accepted. Black knots larger than a quarter dollar are not acceptable. Fingers and rabbet ears must be free of knots. Knots with cracks going all the way through, as long as the knot is solid are acceptable. Small knots in the hand hold are acceptable, unless in the thin part of hand hold. Black edge knots or planer skips with½ (1.27 cm) the thickness or less can be missing from the top or bottom of the board.

Use 9⅛" Frames and 8½" Foundation. Nails not included. Use 7D nails to assemble hive bodies and supers

What size is right for me?

Did you know the only difference in measurements between 10 frame and 8 frame boxes is the width? 8 frame equipment is narrower than 10 frame, and not always compatible with other 8 frame equipment as dimensions vary slightly by manufacturers. 10 frame equipment offers more space for brood and honey production.

    Deep hive body

    by Greg Schultz on Jun 05, 2024

    The finger joinery on most boxes resulted in some pretty ugly boxes, but at least most ended up being square.

    The excellent 'select' boxes are no longer available. These boxes have knots that are loose and portions fall out during assembly. Not the quality i have been used to receiving in years past.
