In reading my copy of  Snelgrove (10th ed Feb 1956) he shows the screen
board as having only one layer of mesh in its construction.  However I have
heard it referred to as a "double screen" board and a beekeeper of over 50
years experience told me that a single layer of screen will not work and
that screen should be placed on both sides of the board.  What is the
opinion of the list?
