Top Bar Hive Plans

[tkwinston4]

I know it was mentioned on here a few days ago but for the life of me I can not find where. The search function drives me nuts sorry Admin!

I guess this is probably for Brosville but can anyone recommend a good website for some plans for a TBH? My dad wants to give one a go; not entirely sure when mum will let him have the time off but if I can give him the info he will be happy!

Cheers in advance.

Well, there's the obvious one - Biobees, from which you can download the free plans

What plans do you have in PDF? as also interested in other plans.
I can forward plans of British Nationals in both metric and imperial these plans have been copied from the web and work as made from them.
I also have plans for TOP BARS as this is a work in progress project.
I can forward these plans FREE of CHARGE to anyone who would like them.
Please PM with email address.

Regards

Steve

If you want to see how one is built then take a look at 'Daves bees, how to build a KTBH' on u tube. You get step by step how to build one.

If you want to see the original plans, take yourself over to the fao.org website, /docrep/t0104e/T0104E00.htm#Contents
Webpage title is "Beekeeping in Africa"

Sorry I can't post a proper link - haven't got enough posts to do that.

There's also a whole host of useful beekeeping information there.
