The Drum Top Bar Hive got a Twin

Even though it was freezing cold outside I enjoyed every minute of making this second Top Bar Hive which is made from a reused cable drum pallet.

I just finished the body and the legs. Soon to rip some top bars, make a divider with a hessian cloth, and make a roof.

Can't wait to introduce colonies next year into these Twin Drum Top Bar Hives :)

I have a few more planks left from this drum pallet but not enough for a big hive, so will make a 10 frame nucleus hive for making splits etc ...
