I made 3/4" shims for all my hives last fall, and drilled a 1/2" hole in one side for ventilation, head space, and upper access. I put it under the inner cover and the bees loved the extra space and the upper entrance. They didn't start building burr comb under the inner cover until a few weeks ago and then I pulled the shims.
