Thanks, Josh. Just bought some acreage to raise beehives. This helps a lot for a newbee like me.

Thanks for the video! Wanting to get into beekeeping in South Texas near Corpus Christi

While I'm not a "Safety Sally" I'd like to mention that there probably should have been a feather board or two used on the 2 x 4" side piece dado work? Quick and easy to make and having owned and used my Shopsmith for many years I know that I would be using them - especially on awkward, tall, end grain work.

ماشاءالله تسلم إيدك 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌💯

What you smoking out of that glass pipe? lol thanks for sharing great video.

Do you have an HOA for your neighborhood? They allow bees or how did you circumvent the HOA?

سلام این دستگاه سازنده کدام کشور است

Станки у вас хорошие!

great job and great instructions

I think the hole was drilled too close to the bottom of the bucket which won't allow the curved side of the bucket to flatten out to conform to the gate. IMHO

Great video. Love your Shop Smith.

Just a thought... have you considered putting your electric drill on a dimmer switch? Then, you could tape the trigger into the "ON" position... and gradually move the dimmer switch until you increase the speed to where it extracts the honey. 🤷

I use gravel, so that there is water in the nooks and crannies and the bees can easily land on it to get a drink without drowning. I like how it is based sort of on the sugar water feeders I use on my hives, with a jar of sugar water slowly feeding down in a vacuum.

What type of wood was used? How did you fix any “bow” in the boards? I bought some 1x10 and they all have slight bowing in them.

O pqdrao 'langstroth' não existe nos e.u.a. A medida menor é 13,7 e nao 15,875

Please work on your audio can't hear you sorry

Nice. I used the jointer plain for the bee space on the side. Made it a bit higher too, so bees have more working space. Well presented very practical. Thanks

If you use a corded drill and a light dimmer switch You can control the speed. Works great on a chicken plucker we made

I have liked both videos on this DIY extractor you built, the build and then use of the extractor. In my search for great DIY plans, I have come across a couple other tips that may Help. First you've heard already and that is to support top of extractor, second is to add a one way bearing and coupler to the top of the shaft of extractor. this bearing allows you to spin the center piece and when you let go of the trigger for the drill it allows the extractor to spin freely without coming to an abrupt stop.

ok so you made a few mistakes I wonder if the glass bowl on the bench had anything to do with this, LOL

congratulations on the job. How much time do you spend to get mine out of 2 frames? thanks

Nice

👍

i love this video - for seven solid years folks have been discovering this video and leaving little notes about their beekeeping and bee-watering experiences, and the fella who posted it still checks in every now and again. this isn't like an influencer operation or some business selling whatever or generating PR, just a guy who's keeping the bees happy, and the people that are made happy thereby. it's a bee-autiful thing.

Tools to make boxes and frames. chop saw, jointer, tablesaw, dido stack and nails and glue.

that's a great idea! and why so few likes?

Thank you Josh.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing and keeping the bees happy.

great ! very helpful info for newbies

I was bornedin 2013

This was on 2011

Bees

hello mister (last name) I came from ur juice wrld video and I love this channel, ps. whats ur last name? lol

Why is the frame very lengthy? Instead of 19 inches, like can we make to 12 inches or something smaller? And wat difference will it make?

am i only who got here because of comment on juice wrld

Your honey looks kinda thick too, some kinds of honey just don't spin well (such as heather)

That's really cool. Its used as medicine for wounds aswell. Tastes strong and bitter too. Thanks for showing me this!

The purple is a primer not a glue right?

Was checking the net and it costs quite a lot for all the fittings, probably works great but thought I would mention this .

Question: Could you not cut the cut away parts from the bottom of the side bars while they are still in the 2x4 mode and then cut the side bars apart after to avoid hand cutting every little cut away part on each one?

Shouldn’t the angle stop be pushing the wood?

Simplest and cheapest way is to buy a used 6 speed food mixer and mount a piece of wood or metal across the top. then make a simple frame like you have made or one out of wood. On the base below frame holder mount another piece of wood for the frame to slot into the centre so it pivots as it spins without frame holder touching side. Using something like a plastic rain catching barrel is much taller and a large 2 inch tap can be mounted at the base along with sieves. The drum is much wider so a double frame could be mounted (one frame either side) so this means frames would empty both sides at the same time and not collapse. You would always start on low speed and speed up as they empty. Also much easier to clean being just one drum...

with the price of the buckets, pvc , glue , paint strainer and the time to build it . its only 140$ for a metal 2 frame spinner that will last the rest of your life. not discrediting your video looks great! just saying

Nice Glass Piece!

Asking for a friend, would it make more sense to uncap (scrape) both sides of the frame/comb to allow the honey to flow more freely?

Where are you

I always was told not to put anything smaller than my elbow into my ears.

Wow, big difference after new parts on the band saw. Nice gear for the wood shop. Thanks for the video, I subscibed.

It would be best if you put the oil in early so it can mix with the pressure of the water. Lemongrass is an attractant used for swarms, and can attract other flying insects: wasps, and yellow jackets. So, I would just use the bleach.
