Thanks to all who contacted me about this equipment. I did find someone to take it all, so it is no longer available.
I gave up beekeeping as a hobby 20 years ago, but I kept my equipment. It's been sitting in a shed in my backyard since then. The shed is falling apart, so I'm giving away my equipment which I should have done 20 years ago. I've got six deep brood boxes, with drawn comb, and nine medium supers, also with comb. Like a dummy, I stored the supers with honey in them. Some is still liquid, but some has crystallized. I don't know if this stuff has any value to anyone or not. If somebody can salvage the beeswax, more power to them. If time has turned everything into worthless junk, well, I've got a good garbage hauler. The hive boxes themselves are in pretty good shape. A few have some mildew on them, but it scrubs off easy enough. I've also got some miscellaneous stuff, a smoker, bases, bottom boards, covers, etc. As I said, I'm giving it all away, so if you are interested in any or all of it, send me an e-mail. sjkman3000@msn.com I live in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, and this is offered for pick-up only.
