I have old dadant 12 frame radial extractor works great on shallow and medium frames.I tried deep frames in past but it leaves about half the honey in the frame.Anyone tried putting deep frames in tangentally in this type of extractor?Thanks Cider

You can do it with deeps this way only if you got the wire to support the combs so they don't blow out.
Might have to cut a few ueen excluders to fit the sides of the radial to hold the combs and then use the tangital way extracting honey by manually reversing each side for extracting lifting the frames in and out.
