I have been looking into using/buying a 'normal' honey tangential extractor for my top bar honey extraction. I have searched high and low for info and the only video I can find is on youtube. The chap (in USA) who is using it bought a 'normal' 2 frame spinner and adapted it slightly for top bar use. This appears to work very well. Is there anyone on this site or knows of anyone that has used and/or adapted one in this way? I just can't see the point of wasting the comb by chopping it up! There's several plastic ones available for about £125/150 which I find rather favourable in price. Any comments would bee welcome.
(I have just found the youtube video again and there's mention of the adaption. A 1/4inch drop to the basket). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4lwVgHTja0
