1/8th just isn't enough very likely the bees will ignore it.
I didn't pull out the level but there eye balled. but do I need to brake out the 4' level on them? 1.375 to wide for bars? I was thinking about boxing them up and throwing out the top bars. may be make some supers out of them. :lpf: that would straighten them out.We leveled all three of ours meticulously. All three have built pretty much perfectly straight and centered combs. I wouldn't say it's perfect, but they pretty much have it sorted out. My brood bars are 1 1/4" and if anything it looks like they might prefer something more narrow. Most of my bars are all one piece wedge. However, I just made 105 bars with tongue depressors kerfed and glued in. They built three perfect combs on those as well.
How level are your hives?
The photo makes them look square, but the ends of the wedges are angled to follow the hive sides.PLCnut, I make mine basically the same, but on the ends of the wedge I miter the cut so that there isn't a big gap between the end of the wedge and the side of the hive. It is the pain in the behind part of making them.
