Easily the most comprehensive and detailed instructions I've found on the internet. Also looks fairly straight forward for the "non-woodworker" (me) to be able to complete. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make it a simple project.

Excellent video! This is very easy to understand for the beginner. God Bless and thank you for taking the time to show how it is done.

Wow Commander Bacon the hive is very nice. Thank you for sharing. God bless y’all.

I like the overall design of the Langstroth Long Hive. I like the idea of having a pitched roof vs a flat roof. I have used the traditional Langstroth hives, but as I get older it is harder for me to lift those deep boxes, especially when they are full of honey. The design shows me that Doug put a lot of thought into the long hive.

Thanks for showing how you made your hive bodies. I'll be making a couple of these thanks to your video!

This was a long one, but I stuck it out to see how it all worked out. HA! Thanks for sharing. I hope to build my own horizontal hives one day. Land, chickens, and gardens first though! Great job. Cheers and God bless you guys.

Thanks for showing this in detail! I’m definitely in the woodworking for dummies class. 😂

Awesome Horizontal Langstroth Hive! I have the traditional Langstroth hives, and this design is going to make beekeeping so easy, and also make the bees happy! Thanks for sharing! I sent you an email request for the plans. You are a talented carpenter!

I may look into this style over the Winter. .

Awesome job

Man you did a great job on that hive build. Keep up the good work!!!

Very nice. Would like to get some bees one day for our homestead.

Man you did a great job on that!

Thanks!

I'm glad to see your shop is in as much disarray as mine. Lol. I really like the concept of the long box. I'm a retired heavy duty diesel mechanic turned carpenter and I've built several of the vertical boxes that turned out pretty good. I'll be using a dado set up for the cuts on the long pieces. I like to use rabbit cuts when I do them right. Your demeanor is great and entertaining.

Nice work!

That is a nice big workshop you have there.

I like your shop. It looks used as does mine. I also love the hat!!

Nice video and nice job on the hive!

Thank you! What size were the cleats on top to retain those cover boards?

If you can force some room into your budget to install some solar panels on your workshop, and use them to power a split unit heat/AC unit, it will pay for itself very shortly, and you will very quickly appreciate the investment. You'll be comfortable all year long in your shop. If you can install a large enough battery bank, you might even be able to power some of your tools as well. VERY COOL PROJECT, and GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!

This is the best making long hive movie i ever see. Wel done Doug. Kind regards from the Netherlands (Fred)

Interesting build but I thought you needed better camera coverage. Other than that you built an excellent hive. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing!

Make a tall jig that fits over the fence to run tall boards through the saw safely. I see these cuts all the time and while I'm glad people achieve their cuts without injury, I'm always thinking "YIKES!" when I see these risky cuts being made. I will say at least you used your "shoe" to help run it through. Most people I see use their other hand!

I'm not a Safety Sally - however - Possibly using a feather board on your table saw would have pushed the finger safety meter to a much higher reading on some of those cuts. Just sayin'. Joe

Hi there. Love the wood shop. Toooooo hot. Love the hives. I hear you are having a visitor for Ridgelife. He talked about you on his live last night.

Great build. How much bee space is there from the bottom of your frames to the screen bottom board? I figure it’s just shy of an inch?

Thanks 👍. I have neither your skills nor your tools but am thinking about laminating some plywood or hive boxes. Either way, very helpful. Love the lid.

Like a set of plans Sir,are they available

Very nice, how many frames will this hold and I will be contacting you when you get the plans done.

I would love a copy of the plans!

Sorry I’m so late to the party. But I have some 4 year old treated 2x12s can I use these for my hive? Should I paint them first on the inside or just get some fresh wood?

how do i get the blueprints for the long hive

where did you get the oil pans?

Nice video. What was the cost of materials for each hive?

Very Nice Job ! I Use The Titebond II A Lot When I Build Things ! Wish I Had All That Machinery You Have ! Very Nice Shop ! I Thought about buying those corner clamps But Wasnt to Sure about them ! So Did you like how they work ! Is it worth the investment ! Very Nice Job on the Bee box ! God Bless !

That was a hot day. Lol. I have been doing some research on the horizontal hive and pros / cons. How do you like it? Does it get very cold where you are in winter? Great job and thanks for sharing. - Tom “Outdoors and Country Living”.

I’ve never heard of a Langstroth version of horizontal hive. What’s the difference?

did you ever come up with any plans?

Old school craftsman! well done, I love the design of the hive, pretty much the same hive we will have! I found this half way into the build and picked up a few pointers from your video. Thank you for posting.

How did you attach the oil pan frame to the hive? You missed the attachment process on the video, great video

I wish I would have learned wood working and bee keeping from my step-father before he passed away. I was only 20 so I didn't have enough sense to pay attention as I had other interests.

What is the purpose of planing down the 2x4’s? Do you have to do this if you don’t have a planer? Great job on the build!!!

💚 minutes marathon

Nice video. Do you offer plans for this hive? Edited to say I missed your email the first time around. I'll get in touch for the plans.

tried to email for the plans, but the email address isn't any good - is there another way? I mainly just want the measurements to build. Thanks, the video is very helpful.

Playlist run!!!

I’ve completed the drawings for the plans. If you would like a copy, send an email to HisWayHomestead4u@gmail.com for more details.

u still rolling its 5;30 am

Great video, thank you. I tried to send an email to ask for a copy of the plans but it would not go through. Can you send your email address. Thank you.

Thanks!

Thanks!
