Hi All

I clipped this from one of Lloyd's posts...

> mesh for floors.

As an ex-Equipment Manufacturer, I have been following the development of
plastic bee equipment more closely than most.

I agree with Lloyds statement and would add moulded feeders to his list. I
may also consider lids/roofs/covers and mesh floors, because they could be
arranged/designed to stack for tranport.

If I were still in business I would strongly consider the course that Murray
is following and as I learned more about the technology, would probably
invest in the process more fully.
