The intro reminded me of Norm Abrams old show, "be sure to read, follow, and understand the safety rules of your power tools. Knowing how to use your power tools safely will help reduce the risk of personal injury, and remember this, there is no greater safety rule than to wear these, safety glasses. Lol

Nice job on your videos. Ive been watching them to learn to build hive boxes myself.

Glad to see a new video! I have been using your designs for the boxes and am happy to see you putting out new content.

[tpaige]

This is a really good design and a great video. What are your thoughts on using pressure treated for the sides and back, and using non-treated for the floor?

[carlgirolami]

Another great video. I’ve used your plans for the hive boxes and they turned out great.

[Loglakeliving]

Hey! First comment. Glad to see a new video. Well done!

[josephsastre]

Great video. Also watched the hive body/super and migratory lid videos. Thank you. Will you do one where you make standard hive tops or one where you make frames?

[jamesklassen]

Do you have a video of building sloped bottom boards?

[BradAllison-cg]

I'm curious, why not just use 8" boards on the bottom so that you have half as many seams on the bottom? Fewer coins, fewer dado's and a lot faster while still leaving room for expansion.

What grade is the cypress you are using?

[kenlucia]

can you do the top board? (cover) thank you

[agentfire]

Damn u made a simple thing complicated

Are you for real!!!!. talk about doing something the long way, guess those that have no skills at all will think this is great.Takes me less than 5 min to build a base, and I build 100's at a time. I found your video a little ridiculous. Guess you did your best.
