I took those photos, they been copied from my website:

When talking about gentle scuts, we have to remember they were 
compared to the real thing. Yes they were much gentler than wild bees, 
but not near what I would use in my operation. Barry had been 
selecting for larger bees, those built 5,2 mm comb instead of the 3,9 
wild scuts build. I would hesitate to say those were "original"
scuts...
