First - YES I have looked at Dave Cushman's site.
I want to build a swarm box. I have built all my own hives and nucs, so this shouldn't be a problem. And, yes, I have sufficient tools.
My question is do you have a better design/idea than those on DC's site for a swarm box? Requirements are that it is light enough and not too big. I will need to be able to hold it in one hand whilst balancing on a ladder, in a beesuit and also sawing/shaking a branch and doing all the other things we go through to get a swarm...
Thanks
