does anyone have dimensions or plans on making 5 frame nuc boxes out of plywood. i am looking for a simple method of like screwed together corners and mig. lids. nothing fancy like the dovetail joints etc.
Are you wanting plans for using one thickness of plywood and no dados for the frame rests? Check out D Coats plans.
The ones i make have 1/2 ply for the sides and the bottom, 1x12 pieces for the ends, and 5/8s for the lids.
check out april issue 2010 of bee culture mag. Peter Sieling has an article titled "make the simplest hive". could easily be modified for a five frame nuc. no rabbits used. really simple design i have made a few and they are simple and work great and can be used with standard equip.
