Not So Pro 3

[Mastermind]

Morning, 41 and completely socked in by clouds and under a sever weather alert for high winds, blowing dust, and decreased visibility

I would stay in but the 4 pound box of bees we ordered are going to be ready for pickup at noon and I have to grab them and get them to my son

I am sure wishing it were warmer today

In the meantime, moar coffee

4lbs is a lot of bees !!!!

We used to get 1lb packs to start a hive with.

We used to get 1lb packs to start a hive with.

This is all new to me and the various businesses all receive and sell 4 lb packs for 1 hive

I don't know if it is to compensate for expected die off due to the variable weather in May or what but this is what we were taught in our beginning beekeeper classes

For once I read the instructions and I am following them

Probably be a disaster...

Hopefully get to see how these fly today..

I bought a Tenpoint crossbow a few years ago and don’t think i would go back to a compound bow.

That might make the honey taste funny...

I enjoy the extra challenge that comes with the upright bow. Sometimes not getting the shot ut sitting at full draw is just as cool as getting the shot.

If a guy had to cut plexiglass, what would you dudes say is the best way to do so without cracking it?

Stuff like this makes me have hope for the future of our nation

I certainly don't know the young man; nevertheless, I am proud of him and the man that raised him

Plus I wish I had a dollar for every bird that has died at the hands of a Remington 870

Amen. That gun was given to him by a very good friend of mine. It has a long history of turkey killing. We’re honored to be continuing the tradition.

If it’s lexan you can cut it with a table saw.

Rain with chance of snow in May. WTF

Die grinder slowed down and leave room to clean up and sand the cut edge.

Whatever material you use tape both sides with scotch blue and then mark and cut on tape. I like a fine tooth oscillating Saber saw. But, like DJ said a table saw on straight lines will work too.

Make sure you pull out the correct cork on the queen box when you put the queen in the hive!

I pulled the wrong one last weekend, because I was distracted (dog was rolling around at my feet, because he got stung), and the workers immediately balled her and tried to kill the queen. I managed to pick her up and get her back in the box, and all is well now a week later...

I just checked Mann Lake, they are selling 3lb packages. Either I don't remember right (highly possible) or 1lb packages are no longer a thing.
