LOL! Agreed!

Next will be plastic frames. Wonder if it could build plastic foundation from a scan and if it would be financially feasible?

Probably, you would need the bigger printer though. The small ones only do 6" or so. Around $350. The larger ones are approx 8 times that... too rich for my blood.

Yeah, but if I had those how would I be able to kick over the frame of bees I leaned up against the side of the hive?

zweef, please do not tell me you are having trouble with SHB?
let's go into business.......you buy the printer, i buy the plastic............... :D :D :laugh:
plastic frame holder; i have a couple sets of stainless steel ones that look like this:
Stainless Steel Frame Holders (https://glorybee.com/stainless-steel-frame-holders-pair?m=Abstract&gclid=CLP2pLaZr9ICFUi1wAoduukCzA)
i tend to lose things, but anyway i didn't buy them. i have a brother that is/was a tinner/welder etc...... showed him what i wanted and he made them for me. pretty cool! i don't have a picture of them and not going out in 25 d F weather to dig them out and take a pic......... :D
i don't like setting frames against the hive sometimes, like perry said, i either kick them/tip them over.

Riverbee - no shb here... just thought it would be good to pass on.
