- Welcome to Adventures in Beekeeping. My name is Dale. This video shows how I am currently building some langstroth bee boxes using a jig that I recently built.

I like the jig, what do you call the red handle clamps?
Got them from amazon... they are called push pull toggle clamps. POWERTEC 20304-P2 Push/Pull Quick-Release Toggle Clamp 302F - 300 lbs Holding Capacity, 2 PK. Thanks for watching. Have a great beekeeping season!!!
@@adventuresinbeekeeping7590 Thank you I'm gonna look them up. 👍
Do you have a video of your hive box jig, build
No Sorry. It was a kind of a design/build thing and I did not make a video... I should have. It is 2 pieces of 3/4 inch plywood with a heavy duty lazy-susan from Lowes between them. Two stationary stands bolted to the top piece of plywood. Make sure there is a perfect 90 degree angle between them so that the boxes turn out square. The push pull toggle clamps are mounted on a wooden tower to get them in the right position. Everything is bolted together (no glue) so that it can be modified if necessary. The wood towers are bolted together using threaded wood inserts so that the height could be modified if necessary. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching. I hope you have a great beekeeping season!!!
