Schawee built a wall section a few years ago that he hauls to Our annual get together at Bud's every April

We usually just shake a swarm into it & let them build up

He actually framed up two sections for two separate colonies, one for beginners, the other for intermediate

The intermediate has screws, nails & wires sticking into the void which makes the removal more interesting :-)

Course the first year, we got stuck removing them outta the dang thing so the joke was on us! :-)
