Inexpensive Do-It-Yourself Honey Extractor

[PaloAltoMark]

Earlier this season, I posted to this forum about a hand drill powered honey extractor I built out of a paint stirrer and wire mesh  when I found myself with uncapped frames and no working extractor.  I also promised that I would provide plans for revisions I was going to make based on this initial design.

I am now posting the new design.  This new extractor is simple, inexpensive to build ($25-$85) depending on how fancy you want the tank to be and will hold 4-6 frames at a time.  You can find full pictures and instructions at the below link:

Those are some good shots.   Great article.  Do you know if they make the wire mesh in stainless?
