Another useful video to have as a reference. I look forward to the inner cover video and your plan for the bottom too. I suppose the bottom depends a bit on how you expect to use the NUC.

Nice job. I just use divider boards. I make an extension on the bottom board to keep the two colonies from getting at each other

I considered doing that but then decided that I wanted the entrances on opposite sides of the box. Thanks for watching.

I've watched maybe 10 of your videos, and you don't use glue in assembly. Why is that? BTW your content is excellent and I appreciate it very much.

I use glue for frames. I feel that bee propolis is a good enough glue in most cases or I am willing to make the trade off for production volume.

You could cut a dato in bee box jig to fit over the center.

This is absolutely an excellent idea....

Did you up loaded the videos on making the special bottom board and inner cover for this build?

For this do you use a queen excluder over the top of it? Or do you keep them in the single deep box? Keep up the good work!

I use a divided bottom board and start two nucs in one of these. As they grow I add another of these boxes. Then I will add a queen excluder and honey super as needed. So I end up with 16 brood frames gathering honey. At the end of honey flow I remove honey and put the 2 new colonies in their own 9 frame box and move them... I hope that answers your question.
