Instrumental Insemination Users and Devices

[JSL]

Hi,

I am curious...

How many beekeepers out there are currently using II?

How many will admit to having the equipment and not using it?

Anyone built their own instrument?

Again, this is just for my own curiosity. I think there are more and more people using II and I think it is unfortunate to have the equipment and not put it to good use.

As for the homemade instruments, it is always fascinating to see the designs others have come up with. I enjoy tinkering with new designs.

Thanks!

I haven't found the time for II so I certainly know I wouldn't find the time for clever designs. I have the Schley, with Motic stereo scope and Meiji FO lights.
