Excellent video. Most commercial beekeepers are tight lip about this. Thank you.

Should put your bottom 5/4 boards in about 8 inches so you have a place to tuck your nets under for hauling

I see in blog post says your using sheathing but what grade plywood are you using. Was hoping to try 1/2 ply that will not delaminate. Thanks for puting together video, seen some ideas not on other sites.

[@trentpadgett1408]

so most people use 3/4 X 2 for the risers?

I have another question I bought 4 packages from rock hill (jerry) and 1 queen was dead and I am sure Jerry will make that right but all three packages of bees went to one queen and wont have anything to do with the other 2 queens I have tried everything to get them over to the other 2 and no results ...still waiting for Jerry to call its a busy time this year... but I am in a panic this was a big investment for me I live off disabled Vet pay so I really need them to stay with their queen.... do you have any advice for me to get them to stay with their queen???
