Thanks to a bit of luck on eb@y and a very good honey crop I am the proud new owner of an electric extractor.
Before I take my old one to the tip I thought I would see if somebody wanted it.
Got it with my first Beekeeping on a Budget hive from Th@rnes about 6 years ago. It is plastic, manual and extracts two frames at a time (up to 44x24cm) at a time, tangentially.
It did very little work for the first two seasons but has been pretty busy lately. The fitting of the handle is slightly worn but it still works well. The valve at the bottom is still working perfectly. I have tried to look after it well.
Would suit someone starting out with a hive or two or maybe someone that struggles to get hold of the Association one when they need it.
PM me if you are interested I will probably tip it in about a week if nobody wants it.
I am in Hampshire on the M3 between Southampton and Winchester.
