Title: Got a new toy?20 Frame Dadant
Post by: BurleyBee on February 05, 2022, 07:54:49 PM
Found this on Facebook just down the road from me for 1200.  Couldn?t turn it down.  I was going to drive to Paris Texas to get a new one.   Glad it worked out.  I like the older version with the separate stand.  Went ahead and built some wheels for it.

Nice.  The D20 is a good machine for 20-50 hives sized apiary.

Those wheels will keep you moving if it gets a bit out of balance.

They have locks, but they?re mainly to save my back moving it.  Not sure if I?ll extract with them on.

The wheel problem will be a small bridge to cross, at least you have it! Congratulations on your nice machine!
