At 16:48, thank you. That was the perfect moment for airplane noises. I didn't know I needed it. Also I pray for your fingers all the time. Sending love from Seattle
Mark you really need to throw the brush away and start using a med roller , three times quicker and a lot easier. If you are buying paint ask the paint shop to mix into a colour bond colour surf mist , it’s got great covering advantage and we make it easy for you the next time 😎
Love the way we're still talking about bein' on the telly ... ((hugs))
We recently received a couple of pounds of your fine mallee honey. i wanted to say that the wife and i were very impressed. It made our taste buds tingle with delight, had it on my toast 3 times already.
Geez Mark!! I would stacked 'em & sprayed 'em, heck of alot quicker, all you'd need to do would be around the edges with a brush.
Have fun!
This is what I do and I am a great beekeeper too.
I think overalls might be what you need!
Great idea about the saw horses and planks have a great day
This is how I’ve started to paint my hives so much easier
Mark, the paint that seems to change color in the sun is pearlecent or just pearl.
I've got to use the sawhorse trick next time I have a bunch of supers to paint. And I hand paint them all with a brush too.
The social kitchen! Is there an antisocial kitchen too. (On bee man's apron)
I'm gonna have to change the name of my pizzle now, and I thought nectar was such a sweet name. LOL.
After you've finished painting them, how do you keep the paint from getting messed up? Especially, I can't keep the bricks from staining the lids, etc. But I'm in an area with too much wind to not use bricks or something on the lids to keep them from blowing off.
Thanks nice video
Do you get snow during winter? Sorry don’t know geography of Australia that well. My dad just say it’s hot. And spiders
We call the horse bench a donkey round our neck of the woods. I've heard people call it a pony too.
We call them saw horses
Why do you paint bee boxes white? Is it for solar reflecting or some other reason?
Knowing the BBM you would think it was so he doesn't lose them in the bush LOL :)
ACRYLIC IS WATERBASE, AND YOU MUST NOT PUT ACRYLIC OVER OIL BASE, BUT YOU CAN PUT OIL BASE OVER OVER ACRYLIC ITS BETTER WEATHER RESISTANCE. I'M USING OIL BASE SEALER IN AND OUT, THEN ONE COAT OF SILVER METAL STRUCTURAL STEEL PAINT ON THE OUTSIDE AND IN THE JOIN, APPLIED WITH A 10 MM NAP ROLLER, GOES ON BEAUT AND IS NOT STICKY WHEN PAINTING OR WHEN DRIED LIKE ENAMEL PAINT. WATER BASED STICKS TO THE LID WHEN YOU PULL IT APART THE PAINT PEELS OFF ! OH AND I DO A COAT OF COPPER NAPATHANATE IN AND OUT AS THE INITIAL PREPERATION BEFORE UNDERCOAT, IT DOUBLES THE LIFE OF THE BOX, SO 3 COATS ALL UP. THE COPPER NEEDS A FEW WEEKS OUT GASSING
IF ALL YOUR HIVES ARE SAME COLOUR PAINT SOME UNIQUE VARYING COLOURED IDENTIFIERS ABOVE THE BEE ENTRANCE, SO THE QUEENS CAN FIND THEIR WAY BACK TO THEIR HIVE IF THEY HAVE A FLY.
That’s positive thinking a couple of hundred supers to go that would be an increased honey production of about 1000 percent if my calculations are correct nice one BBM.
You are wrong. They already have close to 100 hives. You tried, but you are wrong. That is okay, you might improve one day.
Hughy Hughes I said increase in honey production didn’t he say he has another couple of hundred honey supers to paint and he only took about 5 super boxes of honey total this year
I use a paint roller
don't put acrylic over oil paint it puckers and warps and flakes off. take it from a artist they don't mix well either unless tha'ts the effect your going for. oil over acrylic is more than ok.
Better off with plastic hives no maintenance at all.
I’ve been enjoying your videos. Thanks for your efforts. However (just my opinion here) - you seem to be getting squeakier and squeakier. I much prefer it when you talk normally.
I doubt they will "run that ad any more" ....Not since they threw the guy in prison for paedophillia related crimes.
LOL would you not buy some "overalls" and save your jumper sleeves from painting. I so lost it at the painting cars story and nail polish was invented. Then I was looking at your nails and thought I can see how that happened LMAO. Have you thought about an airless spray rig? You might be mighty time poor if you keep using a brush at your scale ;) BTW you forgot the "Sure Can" bang and slap on the can of paint lid :) And watch out for a random English Sheep dog creating havoc if you are going to use that stuff, the Boxers will not be happy.... Great video lads.
You're a strange one dickstick1. Watch it again, he did slap the can.
Cant stand 5-year-old attitude from grown man…:((
