Does anyone have any knowledge of melting out frames they could share? I'm thinking of building a melter that will collect honey and wax after an overnight melt, using the bottom of a small ibc as the catch tray/drain. The main issue is the type of heater. I guess I could just put a small fan convector in the bottom, but it seems dodgy - a bit of a fire hazard. I was thinking of embedding a small electric cooker ring in a concrete slab, controlled by thermostat and relay. Or maybe I could buy some suitable bar elements.
Best might be a square tank of water and immersion heater underneath - but getting hold of a tank seems unlikely.
Does anyone know of a manufacturer of small units of this sort - mayby 24 frame capacity?
