Actually, 220 (or 240) is what comes to the house*. The 110s (120s) are created by splitting the 220 in the middle giving two 110 volt circuits 180 degrees out of phase (reference neutral). So, in...

LOL.

Is Chitown even west of mid? :D

I once got excited about a major walleye tournament circuit introducing a western division. When it finally came to be they didn't even get as far west...

I don't know what it is but it seems to me it used to take two weeks to get in shape and 3 months to get out of shape; now, 3 months to get in shape and out of shape in two weeks.

Wsup?!

Mostly I do like dragonfly but usually because I shoot something in a place where I can't just let it hang. For some reason, if I take a carcass home I trigger a weeks worth of record warm temps and...

If you have an equipment rental business around you may be able to rent a monster grinder for cheap.

I rent a big one for 1/2 a day ($25) and grind pretty much all of 2 of my deer. And it...

Resistance if futile. You will be assimilated.

I buy mine at my local Ace Hardware store. If I don't see any on the shelf I talk to the manager and they'll buy some and have it at the store in about a week.

Bjorn, thank you.

Earlier this year I had read this article and planned on giving it a try. I did ask what others thought but don't recall getting much reaction at the time. Well the time has...

Been too busy during the week to really pay attention to all of the discussions going on in these here parts.

So, all of you folks keep bees and garden too?

You're all nuts!

Anyway,...

I popped open the hive last Saturday feeling prepared to perform the post mortem.

I suspect there is little question of their demise. I easily saw as many dead varroa as I did dead bees and...

I'm guessing more than just a couple hours. I think he's headed for north of Souix Falls from Wichita so I would expect that Salina would be about the easiest place to catch him.

Yeah, 19th...

I imagine that if there are enough interested in this area we could find some way to catch him travelling.

What's the interest of pooling together some sort of group purchase? I would buy 5 and...

Actually, I agree with you. I weighed the pros and cons and felt that the experience of getting a hive through the winter outwieghed the natural selection of colonies for me at this time. When faced...

2:1 syrup.



My feeders hold 2.5 gallons. I left one box of honey on each hive and kept feeding as long as they took it. I would guess that I was a bit short of 50 lbs per hive when done...

Wet is what happened to me last year. I had a monster snow drift melt through one hve.



I'm using mediums.



Hmm. Although not seeing them in the 40s doesn't alarm me, I have seen them...

Yes, mediums. (8 frame)



syrup - from mid Sept. until late Nov.



There was nothing that indicated moisture. Things were dry.

Ha! I might be the first to reply to my own post.

In another thread Micheal Bush says that scattered bees is a sign of TM. These that Isaw were actually small clusters.

Just in case it...

Last fall had 4 hives.

1 was a dud from a swarm - didn't expect much from it - it met my expectation and died pretty early. No matter how much feed I gave it it wouldn't store any.

I messed...

But edge joining is where the spline/biscuit will help! :)

Edit: assuming edging end grain.

Mortises are cut so that their length is aligned long grain so that a tenon long grain glues to mortise long grain.

Building boxes like we are talking about using a mortise/tenon joint, we would...
