Hi all

There have been many recent comments on "graftless" versus "grafting"
systems of queen rearing.

My few cents worth follows the main trend... I have used both Nicot & Jenter
kits over many years, as they were intended to be used (I must say with
better success than most seem to be reporting), but I no longer bother with
the comb box itself as I find a more consistant age of larvae, by eye and
just plain grafting.

There are a selection of types of grafting tool shown on the page
http://website.lineone.net/~dave.cushman/graftingtools.html

Among them is a picture of the Chinese tool that Mats was asking for.
I am sorry that the picture of the Czech one is "missing" at the moment.
