Bee Hive Candy Board Construction

How I build the candy boards for over-winter emergency feeding (or a supplement) for my bee hives.

Will be building several for overwintering. Excellent presentation. Thank you

I bought 2 on Etsy for my hives this winter. I received them last week and they look great.

Hi Roger, nice video. Strongest Boards I've seen on KZbin, so much so that I built 9 for my hives. In an afterthought, after installing yesterday, it did not seem there was ample bee space between the feeder and the frames. Is there supposed to be a shim under the feeder to provide this?

Hi roger I don’t have a 3/8 but I have a 1/2 rabbet bit,, so for the front n back where you said to do 3/8 by 3/4 is the 1/2 ok

[@rogersshop]

If you go with 1/2", then you will need to compensate on wood size to make the difference. We cut the rabbets on a table saw since we usually run 50-100 of these at a time.

Great build Roger...what size roll of HWC seems to be the most efficient? 24" wide, 30"? Throwing some of these together today in the shop, prepping for that northern Michigan 4' of snow winter. Heros 2 Hives

36" for 10 frame and 24" for 8 frame.
