Unveiling the Elegance - Strip Top Bar Hive

Hey Bee Enthusiasts! 💛 I stumbled upon Affreux’s masterpiece – the strip-built top bar hive

over at BeeSource. Prepare to be wowed!

This hive is a work of art, taking inspiration from the ingenious design by Barry Birkey, and adding some fantastic features:

• A seamlessly integrated, ventilated cover – talk about a breath of fresh air for our busy bees!
• Clever storage space tucked right beneath the cover – because every bee needs a little storage room, right?
• A nifty ventilation, drainage, and cleanout slot in the hive body – practicality meets elegance!
• Protective entrance gear right above the entrance – keeping out unwanted buzzkillers!
• A detachable hive stand – convenience at its finest!

Could there be a more aesthetically pleasing top bar hive?

Honestly, if I had the woodworking skills, I’d deck out all my top bar hives like this one – it’s just that stunning!
