This wooden bee hive is made from fir wood that is 0.74 inches thick. The corners use dovetail joinery for a sturdy build, and the hive is designed for outdoor use in harsh weather. The dovetail joints also make assembly simple, including for people new to beekeeping.
An acrylic observation window lets you check on the bees and the hive without frequent disturbance. A removable wooden cover sits over the window. Ventilation ports keep air moving inside the hive, which reduces the growth of harmful substances.
The hive exterior is coated with beeswax to create an environment close to the bees' natural habitat. The ABS hive frames are also beeswax-coated to attract and stabilize the colony. The spacious interior holds 10 ABS lure hive frames and 10 frames of fir wood brood boxes.
