Hive Improvements


The door to the observation window is closed; the feeder is on the right.
Feeder is at end away from center entrance; plexiglass window on left to see who's eating; hole in hive provides access from inside (honey area); sliding plexiglass door allows easy access to feeder.
Observation window open; you can see a lot of propolis on the inside. The door is actually the wood that was cut out to make the window.
this is from inside; caulk used to seal the window; no other attachment needed.
Bottom board hanging open; you can sort of see the screen.
I was able to do this because I have done a lot of carpentry and have a full shop in the basement. Most of the materials were already there.
