Tight together. I usually push all frames to one of the walls, and leave a larger space on one side. I figure that they can only mess up one side of the hive rather than both sides when the frames are centered.Now how tight do I pack the bars in?
It wasn't without it's tribulations!yay for rescued beesthat is how i'm hoping to get some once it warms up around here. so far i've had to live vicariously though my gf's TB hive.
Or buy F style frames from Kelley.Next time buy wedge top frames, remove the cleat and just jam it into the groove and call it a day. It'll stay there w/o glue and it's the perfect length.
Thanks JRG13 next time I order frames I will give them a tryNext time buy wedge top frames, remove the cleat and just jam it into the groove and call it a day. It'll stay there w/o glue and it's the perfect length.
The grooved or wedge frames is cheaper than the F style framesOr buy F style frames from Kelley.
You are right Gilligan I was pricing the assembled and not the unassembled F Style framesWhat are you guys paying?
All the same from Kelly. .83 cents... If its pennies then it's money well spent vs even the time it took to participate in this thread.
That's a good point... I'm just in the mindset of never running foundation so I never think of it from that angle.I just like the wedge top cuz if you have foundation, you can use them just the same, or if you run out of foundation, just use it as a foundationless frame.
