Do you scrape the tops and bottoms of frames off?  My bees build up the vertical space bet. frames with cells when they typically raise some drones and deposit some honey

Really? Don't see very much of that, as would consider it improper box spacing with frames either wrong sized, or frame rests not finished/sized proper depth for allowing frames proper spacing in hanging.Even when reconditioning equipment always check frame rests and other for proper spacing. Makes work so much easier without all that burr stuff to have proper spacing. Also bees much gentler to work and more easily also.
