Hi Dawn_SD
Thanks for expressing your appreciation etc. My pleasure.
ok, I intend to upload a photo of the finished hive soon. I have made modifications (etc) to the bottom board as discussed in the following post: Hive Base & Screened Bottom Board Modification Idea
So you might see the back door with the non standard (non Flow) handle in the pic. Fortunately the scorching is on the side which does not have the viewing window.
I have learnt in life that simpler and more natural ways, often require more effort. Convenience (short term pleasure) often has some very serious (long-term) down sidesβ¦
best wishes
