Queen Marking press-in-cage

thingiverse

Ok you may be into 3D printing and you may also keep Bees, trust me it can happen. This is a standard press in cage for queen marking if you get stuck just: 1) Download and print the thing. 2) Get some Gimp pins (if your a beekeeper you know what they are) and press them into the holes. The holes are bigger diameter than a gimp pin but they print about right if you know what I mean. 3)Steal some sewing thread from the wife and string the thing doing horizontal then vertical rows with a wrap around the pin at the end of each row and a jump to the next row. If you have a problem ask the wife...top tip.... put the thread back first. 4)Glue the thread with a blob of the old super glue. And there you have it a press in cage made from stuff you have quicker than ordering or going to the shop.
