Thanks!

[@olddave4833]

i have found that by cutting old supers up for shims it saves me a lot of time and i can cut them to any size that i want.

Great video! We have been making sugar bricks for a while. They say beekeepers don’t work in the winter lol.

[@beardedbeeworks261]

The bees have kept me very busy this year!

I like it! Will definitely try to make my own shims at some point. Thanks for posting.

[@beardedbeeworks261]

It’s pretty easy. With a few basic tools you can do it. Thanks

We did live in Ky until about 3 months ago. We now live in TN.

How long in the garage does it take to dry them out? I only made 10 lbs worth so I used the oven. That sure is a nice shop to work in. Wish I had something like that.

[@beardedbeeworks261]

It didn’t dry as fast as I had thought. Usually it is in my shims and it can dry faster because it get more air than in the pan.

Where did you get the mixer blade from for your drill?

[@beardedbeeworks261]

It’s a paint mixer from Lowes.

[@charlierose8164]

Man I like your videos but please don't make the music louder than your voice lol I'd rather hear the saws and drills than as soon as you quit talking the music is much louder

[@beardedbeeworks261]

Yes, it was louder than expected. It was the same volume in the editing software but louder on KZbin. My apologies!
