Small Hive Beetle Guard for Apimaye 10 Frame Hives

thingiverse

This is a remix based off of popsnlois' Small Hive Beetle Guard design for a wooden Langstroth hive. This will fit the Apimaye 10 frame hive. What you need: - Print 2 each of the Door and the Guard - 4 pieces of 3mm nuts - 4 pieces of 3mm x 6mm countersunk screws Print both parts in 10-15% infill using PETG, ABS or ASA. The nuts can be pressed in when using PETG. ABS is a little tight on the nuts but can be set using a heat insert tool on your soldering iron. Use supports on the sliding door file underneath the overhang. See the picture showing the supports. Once both pieces are screwed together, the doors slide right onto your original Apimaye 10 frame door plate. Pop the 3 screws off of your Apimaye hives door plate and slide the entire plate upwards.
