A bit of progress with hive repairs

“Other stuff” seems to have taken up much time today, but I did at least get a little bit of progress made on repairing hives.

First I put some danish oil on the rims I added to floors a few days ago, then painted over the car body filler repairs that I’d made to a poly hive.

Next up was a worn super. I decided that it was really beyond reasonable repair however and gave up. After that I had a brood box that is starting to come apart at the corners. I applied PU glue and a clamp. Hopefully that will be sufficient to keep it in one piece. I’ve done the top today. Tomorrow I’ll do the bottom.
