Bit cool today so assembled a Maisemore hive with double brood box an then painted it
Quite enjoyed doing it
You get a hive strap and a queen excluder which is nice
If I did a few I probably wouldn't paint them it too slow and messy
The Lyson's came painted and have better frame rails
They are assembled as well so that's good
No strap or queen excluder though
They have strange holes in the super and brood box
You get polystyrene bits to plug them up they are white and look weird
On the whole both kinds are OK
I'm going to photo them side by side when the paint dries and I might put a Smith beside them for comparison
