 10-Frame Langstroth Hive Complete
$140.00 plus tax

"PICK UP ONLY" at BASF beekeeping meeting, or possibly another location convenient for Denrig.

Fully Assembled, complete with frames with black foundation (waxed), solid bottom board, entrance reducer, hive staples, migratory cover, one deep "commercial grade"* hive body. 

Precision cuts, crisp/smooth hand holds, tight/solid fit.  Suitable for painting... or maybe even staining/varnishing.  A nice hive at a budget or economy hive price.

Compare to other lesser quality hives (economy or budget grade) at $130 to $140... and some are unassembled kits.  

Why do your hives look so nice?  Why don't you offer the cheap, economy, budget wood with a bunch of ugly knot holes?  Did you know that in the overall scheme of things that a complete hive using the "Commercial Grade"* hive body results in only about $2 to $3 more in the overall cost of your complete hive?  Actually I think my complete hive assembled using "commercial grade"* wood for the hive body may even sell for less than many or most of the similar complete, assembled hives you can find elsewhere using budget or economy grade hive bodies.  Don't be fooled by kits that are not assembled... or require you to assemble the frames and foundations (a pain for most of us.)  This hive is fully assembled.

*COMMERCIAL GRADE = as defined by Mann Lake is their most popular grade. Tight, solid knots, small pitch pockets and small, tight cracks are acceptable for this grade. Imperfections that interfere with the structure and functionality of the box are not accepted. Black knots larger than a quarter dollar are not acceptable. Fingers and rabbet ears must be free of knots. Knots with cracks going all the way through, as long as the knot is solid are acceptable. Small knots in the hand hold are acceptable, unless in the thin part of hand hold. Black edge knots or planer skips with½" (1.27 cm) the thickness or less can be missing from the top or bottom of the board.
