Hardly the best advise, unless of course you want to buy other people's
problems.

Guess what?  Art has wonderful advice and a world of knowledge of
beekeeping.  Don't take this quote out of context of his  entire post,
particularly the advice about a joining a local bee club for new
beekeepers.   He gave me that advice some years ago and as a
'student' of his I appreciate the wealth of knowledge he has shared
freely with me as well as the Tidewater Beekeepers Association,
 especially with regard to diseases and pests and used equipment,
probably understanding as much as any other  beekeeper outside
 'academia'.
