dadant beekeeping 3d models

We built this tool for a beekeeper buddy of ours a few years back, and it's been a real game-changer. We did add a metal rod to the front to prevent frames from accidentally falling out – just in case, though we never actually had an issue. It can be...

Beekeepers, listen up! Transporting a queen requires finesse and care. The reusable "door" - that's right, door - is where it all begins. For those in the know, I've got the lowdown on two STL files: kg-transportkaefig2_fixed.stl and...

I rely heavily on plastic foundation and frames for beekeeping, so when I embarked on an expedited Hopkins-style queen rearing project, I needed protective cages to shield the queens. These makeshift enclosures have proven to be effective thus far.

Many novice beekeepers house young queens in 0.63 inch x 5.9 inch or 0.79 inch x 5.9 inch trial tubes until their burgeoning colony is substantial enough to relocate to a larger habitat setup. This plan incorporates both 0.63 inch and 0.79 inch tube...

... However, I prefer showcasing the inner workings myself, while my wife isn't too keen on it. Guess who won? This Duck Pond was designed using Sketchup 8 and printed in PLA on a Replicator 2 using Makerware. Thanks to beekeeper for the Mallard.

UPDATE This works perfectly with a beekeeping suit, which is available for about $25. You can purchase a suit with a removable zip-off hood and cut away the extra material from the hood to attach it to the helmet base. Then, you have the option to...

For beekeeping aficionados (such as myself), this scaled replica of a Langstroth hive is a must-have. Each part, just like the real thing, is separate and meticulously designed. This scaled-down version is roughly one-fifth the actual size, making it...

My wife recently decided to take up bee keeping, so I started printing various beekeeping accessories for her, including MikeyMakesIt's Bee Feeder from Thingiverse. I printed two of them but found that since the Ball jar wasn't secured in place,...

In beekeeping, the most time - consuming operation is pumping out honey. Loading and unloading frames in the honey bucket takes time commensurate with the pumping time, and sometimes exceeds it. In order to speed up and facilitate this process, a...

This project offers beekeepers queen and drone excluders for their use. The excluders can be attached to the entrance bars of mating nucs: * Queen-excluder.stl prevents virgin bee queens from leaving the mating nucs, making it suitable for...

I had my eyes on beekeeper's approach for creating the cover but decided to make a few tweaks and didn't want to use SketchUp, so I reworked it in OpenSCAD instead. Placing the switch on the front face eliminates the need for support during...

Beekeepers must ensure proper ventilation in their hives; they can achieve this by creating a small opening that bees cannot block with propolis but is too tiny for them to use as an entrance/exit. Traditionally, popsicle sticks are glued inside the...

Due to the current time of year, I won't have the opportunity to test this design until next season, so feedback from experienced beekeepers with longer seasons would be greatly appreciated. The openings may be too narrow for drones to pass through...

I discovered a beekeeper's 12V cover that was almost perfect, but didn't fit after rewiring. To solve this, I customized it by increasing the slot height for thicker wire covers and leaving the bottom open to avoid removing wires. Additionally,...
