I've been wondering, with the cost of hives and delayed hive and nuc deliveries. If anyone has toyed around with knocking up XPS poly
hives?
Having just put together an Abelo/Lyson brood box, which is essentially 4 XPS poly boards with 12 screws it got me thinking why don't I just buy some XPS polystyrene sheets and make some super insulated brood boxes for this winter and a few Nucs for swarm collection and spares.
So abelo bands around the 160g/l figure, which isn't the industry standard way of measuring. Does anyone know what that is equivalent to?
Any objections to it being done?
