Have been working on an old Dartington to modify it to my needs.
My plan is to use this one for creating nucs.
So first thing I did was to raise the floor to convert it from 14 X 12 to DN4.
I then packed the floor with celotex
Next up was replacing the rotten roof. Also took the opportunity to insulate this as well.
Then I made two deep crown boards to fit an English feeder.
Then I made some divider boards up.
Ran out of time for today so will work on entrances and painting later.
