Please explain why all the time doing dove tails? I've used butt joints and dovetails in the past and the dovetails always rot out eventually, the butt joints never did and are 10 times faster to build
Technically these are box joints not dovetails but I know what you mean. It's to provide the box with more strength, a box joint can support more than a butt joint. We haven't had any rot issues yet
@@HiddenSpringApiaries True, much stronger. Also box joints help keep the box square. Butt joints tend to parallelogram over time (appologize for using 'parallelogram' as a verb, but I suspect you all get my meaning.)
Hey thanks for this very interesting video I’ve got a question : do you use a jointer and a planer for your rough cut boards ? If yes, do you accomplish that step before cutting the pieces to length ? Thanks !
Excellent video. Well done. Would love a detailed breakdown of the jigs and dados for the box joints
Awesome video and thanks for sharing. You made that look too easy!
I like the color and awesome job bro
I love this clip. You have got it going. I quickly subscribed and pushed the bell 🛎..
Awesome video! Loved the process view.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed
How hard is it to make that jig?
I want to make my own boxes I have a table saw. Just need to know how to make the jig for the corners
Brilliant 👏 Really enjoyed the video.
Thank you!
Excellent work
Did you ever investigate hot wax dip for your hives or do you like paint?
We would absolutely hot wax dip if we could. Paint is just cheaper up front and does a decent job, so that's what we use.
Weill i sure learned some quick tips here,thanks
Could I ask what the table saw with the dato blade is. It looks like a Dewalt Site Saw.. If it was, I did not think it could take the dato blade.
It's a very old Dewalt saw, not sure what brand

Nice job.
Any possibility that you guys make and sell these nuc boxes? I would be interested in buying a couple
We don't, unfortunately. Other supply stores sell 4 frame nuc boxes though
Was that 1x12
Yes
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What kind of table saw you using?
It's an older corded Dewalt table saw, not sure of the model number.
What tipe of glue do use and is it safe to use it for the bees
Titebond 2 or 3. Yes it's safe

No, we want the rough side. It goes on the inside of the hive and encourages propolis build up
I was like damn this is bad ass until the purple paint came out
Thank you!
Great Video! How wide do you make your 4 frame Nucs?
The outside measurement is 8 inches. Half of a regular deep so 2 fit side by side on a base nicely.
Great Job
Swell😊
Hi sir 🥰
