I’m pretty much certain about the pressure issue- had leaks and have seen leaks and the resultant bearding in many flow videos. Its especially important with loose wires, uncapped cells, improperly closed cell rows
Fantastic improvement, I just Assembled my new flow frame classic this morning, it arrived yesterday evening. It took six days only:-) from time I ordered it to the time I received. Everything came together two separate boxes but it only arrived on the same day.
Packaging has been greatly improved as well each set the screws are separated broodbox screws, Flow frame screws, Roof screws.
And this time since I understood a bit more I was able too easily reverse/switch the side of the View window. I have a carving knife so I carved out where the metal strip goes in on the opposite side and everything went together smoothly I’ve plan on doing a little video just showing the set up now. I also predrilled two additional holes where they would have been on the other side. And now that I’ve got the second box/Hi it’s a very good thing that I didn’t switch the view window on the other box. The setup will be much nicer with the two a few windows at opposite sides from each other this will make more sense when I post a video or photos.
Don’t know if the instructions have been revised, regardless this time since it’s my second box a lot of the instructions made more sense and it flowed together much easier.
I also got another hat/veil and I was not expecting this. I now have my spare key since I have a second full flow classic
Waiting on my 3rd box to come in from beekeeping that I’ll have all the new stuff dipped in wax. The original hive is still holding up quite well. Not sure how long painting last or hold up, but right now I’m not seeing any wear and tear, a little dirty I want to get out there with a scrub brush and clean it all and I’m sure the bees would not bee’s would not too happy with that
Thanks for all your feedback I have passed it on to the manual update team. If you think of anything else for the assembly or instruction manual - feel free to post below.
