Picture of a WBC photo with some lifts removed - wanted

[m100]

I need something for some publicity material for our local association. I could probably take one myself if the weather was a bit better but time is tight.

I've tried on google and through various photo and beekeeping websites but while i can find many of the fully assembled items I can't find a photo of a WBC with some lifts removed.

Does anyone have something to hand or point me to a url where I could download one?

A better quality of this one one would be ideal.

P.S. the one on google images a few rows down is a Glen Hive not a WBC

First one is not; third one is not; second one looks fine!

Those boxes look tight in there, so are they thicker timber than original lighter-weight construction ones?

Thanks! Can you tell me what the source is, particularly of the middle one?

- the top box in pic 2 is identical to the top box in pic 3

ok found it (with the help of www.tineye.com)

http://www.beesource.com/build-it-yourself/10-frame-wbc-hive-steve-moye/

That page also explains it's not a true WBC having been built to accept "12 medium Pierco frames" which might explain the near zero clearance from the hive body to the lifts

Pierco frames being plastic Langstroths, which explains the hand holds cut into the inner box walls that look nothing like nationals!
