> I am in the process of building my own horizontal hive and adapting it for use with the honey flow frames. I am using Leo Sharashkin’s basic plans for a 31 deep frame here: [http://horizontalhive.com/how-to-build/long-langstroth-plans.shtml](http://horizontalhive.com/how-to-build/long-langstroth-plans.shtml) He also has plans for using the freeman oil pans for SHB issues–I can honestly say these things are the devils own and should die, die, die! stuck_out_tongue Question: Instead of using smelly, sloppy oil, can I put in some diatomaceous earth in the tray…
