Power point presentation?

[POPZ]

Does anyone know of, or if there exists a powerpoint presentation regarding hive construction or different types of hive? I am giving a beginners workshop next weekend. So anything that could help would be mightly appreciated.

Hi Popz

No PPTs but there are plans on the main SBA site, and plenty of images in the catalogues of the equipment suppliers. Wikipedia has images of some odd hives: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beehive.

Gavin. Thanks for that, Wikipedia is rather interesting - great photos of peculiar hives especially the Wooden hives in Stripeikiai Lithuania. What a lovely sight.
I was just being lazy and hoping that someone had made up some sort of presentation. I am doing a flatpack building workshop here next weekend and was hoping to have some useful stuff to show to folk. I guess that maybe it could be something I could start building myself, but over time and definitely not by next weekend!

Wow! Do you think we could persuade a chainsaw carver to make some like these? Maybe Art in Nature would be a good site. Swarm-luring hives that look like art!

I could see them all along the waterfront near the chip van ....

This thread started as a serious query regarding powerpoint presentations. Within just 5 posts it has degenerated down to chippie vans! It is fairly obvious to me that this forum is going to be way above my intellect and level of learning! (can't find appropriate smiley here, in fact cannot find where any smileys are???)

Have fun - POPZ
