The 16 vertical support pieces are 1/4"thick x 3/4"wide and 13-5/8"long. They will support my brood comb. I am leaving 10 bars without the vertical supports. Maybe it will be easier to harvest honey without them.
| The 26 topbars are 1-1/4"wide x 3/4"thick
x 24"long. They are cut from 2" pieces of 2"x4"s.
A 1/8" saw kerf is cut down the middle of each bar. A 1/4"
x 7/8" chunk is taken off each end of the topbar. Then a
1/4" slot is cut in the middle of each topbar for the vertical
support piece. The 16 vertical support pieces are 1/4"thick x 3/4"wide and 13-5/8"long. They will support my brood comb. I am leaving 10 bars without the vertical supports. Maybe it will be easier to harvest honey without them. |
