bee boxes can be cleverly disguised as tables in a pinch, and serve quite nicely as a makeshift couch/bed if you happen to be living in the back of your truck for a minute. I lived in my truck for almost a year, my equipment made great storage space, kept things organized, made comfy seating, table, bed...and if someone happened to take a look into the back of the truck when I wasn't in it with the curtains drawn it just looked like bee boxes and some wood. Granted it was a tad inconvenient when I had to figure out which boxes to sacrifice when I supered up, or made splits.
All joking aside, we started out keeping our equipment in a 10x12 storage room and ran out of space the first year. DD and I have a large outbuilding that houses most of our equipment, but the tools and saws and totes are all in the big barn. We keep dreaming of building a nice big honey house on the hill north of the little bee yard that has a big shop on the back side for woodwork and a storage area.
