Is there a standard set of measurements for an eight(8) frame Lang box.
I have a set for the 10 but want to know if there is a standard for the 8 frame?

Thanks

Various suppliers have eight frame widths from 13 3/4 to 14. Fourteen inches creates a little larger gap than running nine frames in a ten frame super. Consistency from cover to bottom board is all that matters. If you make all your own it does not matter to anyone but you. The bees certainly do not care. A few on these forums get their alarm pheremones flowing like Africanized Beekeepers.
