We have just had a total loss of a number of supers in a fire.
 
Has anyone had expericence in assessing the value of a super and
frames based on cost of : super, frames, labour, paint, nails, wire,
foundations etc. but importantly the cost of having the foundation
drawn into comb?  I am aware of the various research for conversion
of honey into wax i.e. 1:7 to 1:18 - take your pick........ but from
a  practical point of view, can anyone indicate past experiences with
this situ?
TIA
