I thought I'd share some of my work....
I've enjoyed viewing the work posted here. It is all so beautiful and well done. I thought I'd share a few of my recent pieces. I'm in no way as talented as you ladies but I love to paint. I belong to a little painting group (6-10 ladies depending on the time of year and the weather) that meets once a week at a Senior Center. Our teacher is wonderful and we have such a good time. It is always lots of fun to paint "with" someone. Here are a few of our class projects.
Wooden Iron Recipe Holder
Door Crown
This is painted on some sort of cutting/cheese board I picked up at GoodWill...please don't look at the uneven "floor tiles"...I had to adjust the pattern to fit the surface...and I didn't do a very good job of getting things even :( My excuse for things being uneven and crooked is always "It's primitive" unfortunately....this piece is NOT.
Happy Painting,
Hi Diane and welcome to the forum! Thanks for sharing your pics with us. We love pics!! ha I for one would say you are very talented! Everything looks great but I love love love your door crown! I really do love primitive and decorate my house with it. =)
I didn't even notice the tile was crooked until you said something. ha I hope you'll continue posting with us. If you like to chat about anything and everything come and post with us over on Conversations. ~Anj
Oooh! I don't think I can choose a favorite Diane. Your painting looks wonderful. That door crown really catches my eye, and of course I love anything with a birdsnest on it! Little irregularities are what makes "hand painted" items so special. Love the little scence on the recipe card holder too. I'm so glad you are sharing your projects with us. Luvs
Diane, I love the door crown, but I like bird nests also, and the little house in the meadow - so cute. It doesn't matter at what stage you are in your painting, everyone on here loves painting and we want to see what everyone is doing. We don't judge and critiques are only made if requested. Some of us take classes, some are self taught, some paint all the time, some not as often, some paint Donna Dewberry style, some more realistic and some paint primitives. But it is all still painting to me - you can't help but love it.
So more pics yall.
Thanks for the welcome and the nice comments everyone. I've enjoyed lurking on this board off and on for a long time. I love seeing what y'all are painting. I taught myself to paint a long time ago but picked up a few classes here and there for the company and to learn new techniques. I am a visual person so many times I need someone to show me how to do things rather than just read the instructions. I love to paint and like I mentioned before I love to paint with someone; either in a group or just with a friend.
Happy Painting
This is so nice to jump on here tonight and see your paintings. They all turned out wonderful and I too hope you will continue to join us here. I love to come here and see new projects posted. I painted some irons years ago and I loved seeing your scene you painted on yours.
Thank you Punk. I loved painting on the iron. I love seeing what everyone has done and hope to share more of what I'm doing. Our group will be painting on saws starting this week so that should be a fun project. It will probably take a couple weeks to complete. We did a wooden round saw blade several months ago but this will be a real hand saw which reminds me I need to clean the rust off of mine.
Happy Painting,
I love them all...great job! And as for your crooked floor tiles, I don't notice those kinds of things especially on hand painted items. It's those little characteristics that let you know it is indeed hand painted! Painting isn't about being perfect, it's about having fun and expressing yourself. Thanks for sharing. :-)
OMG!!! you are too modest diane! this is call "no way as talented"???? your paintings look gorgeous to me! i esp love the first painting :)) so peaceful :) i always wish that paintings like these were real so i can just melt myself into them... a little silly i know... ah well...
Kraftymom, thank you and you are so right about painting, it is about fun and expressing yourself. You know I never notice imperfections in other people's work just my own. It's true we are our own worst critics. Why is it we have the need to point out the mistakes (most people would never notice if we didn't)? Our teacher has a "rule" in our class...even though she has to keep reminding us of it a lot...."You are not allowed to criticize your own work". Now who in the heck would criticize someone else's??? But really if you don't quite like how something is working on your piece she will try to let you know what you can do to correct it and it usually works :). Using too little paint and too small of a brush is usually my BIG problem :)
Luthien Thank you for your nice comments. I too would love to get lost in a nice peaceful place like that, every time I paint one I think I'd just love to jump right in. I'm a little silly right there with ya.
Happy Painting,
Hi Anj, yup I have that brush disease. I love my tiny brushes. I have lots of brushes but seems I always reach for those small ones.
I'm not sure what we are using on the saws...she has some spray stuff she is going to use...she said just make sure we have sanded (or some how gotten)the rust off of them when we bring them to class this week. I might try Naval Jelly on mine to remove the rust. I'll let you know what we use to prep, as I'm sure I will want to get some of it...I have 2 additional saws sitting here that I have been wanting to paint on for a couple of years now. Ya I'm also a "surface collector" :O
Happy Painting,
You can keep posting other projects you have painted, like your saw blade you painted a few months ago. I can hardly wait to see your new saw painted also. I've only painted one saw for our neighbors and I didn't take a picture of it before I gave it back. It was one of his fathers old saws. It's great to have so many here posting and sharing on this forum. Punk
Punk, okie dokie, I'll take a picture of it and a few other things we have done in class (I still have a few unfinished projects...remember I said I was a slow painter, I have about 3 unfinished class pieces that I need to get done). I also have some pictures of some things I painted a long time ago IF I can find them. I hope y'all don't get tired of looking.
Happy Painting,

A0: the hybrid-powered luxury sports catamaran
By Loz Blain
May 9, 2007
May 10, 2007 We love this design concept from Spanish design team Ubica. The A0 is a powered catamaran with vast amounts of luxurious living space in the two side floaters, a maximum speed of 50 knots and an estimated power output of around 2740 kilowatts from a hybrid biodiesel turbine/electric powerplant.
Fast and powerful, with no compromises in luxury, the A0 looks the business as a lifestyle cruiser, it's sporty, elegant and very modern. The central body is the daytime zone, and it has a high bridge with sport seats for all the passengers, a flexible hall with folding table and sofas that hide away and, placed below and rearwards, a modern kitchen that is opened to the rear deck.
The high rearward bridge cockpit provides broad visibility and a commanding view to the captain, and the large side floaters house a luxury master bedroom unit and guest rooms. The guest rooms are in the opposite floater for privacy at night, motion of the ocean being what it is.
Two engine options are anticipated; There are two engine options. The more conservative will use four Volvo Penta D12-800s with a maximum total power of 2200 kw.
Ubica is focusing its attention more on a hybrid motor option that will offer a few cool cockpit button options like silent mode, burst mode, and emergency mode. The hybrid will use four bio-diesel compatible gas turbines (Honeywell LTS-101 600A 3A) combined with four AC-Propulsion Ac-150 EV Power System with an estimated overall power output of 2740kw. With this configuration the ship will be lighter and more powerful than with the diesel Volvos, but well and truly more expensive.
The hybrid's target full speed at 1/3 of load will be 50 knots (using the gas turbines and the electric motors at the same time) for a short period of time. The quick cruising speed will be about 40 knots (4 turbines) and medium cruising speed could be around 30 knots (using only 2 turbines). Silent mode will sneak through the waves using only the electric motors at a stealthy 10 knots, but it's hard to imagine this beast going unnoticed, silent or not.
In charming Spanglish, Ubica claims "The target owner is a person with a sense for elegance, while wants to be innovative and different in its lifestyle, and often seeks custom made solutions. This person enjoys speed and power feelings, but at the same time wants the maximum security and control sensation. He or she would be selective and demanding so the ship uses noble and high quality materials like aluminium, carbon fibres or high quality leather."
It's Ubica's first full design from scratch, and we're sold. Can we have a ride when you get it built, gentlemen?Share

"Life changing"
Stephen R. Covey's book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, has been a top seller for the simple reason that it ignores trends and pop psychology for proven principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity.

"Boring and Repetative"
Ever noticed that trying to calm down often produces more agitation? Or that real fulfillment can be elusive, despite living a successful life? Often, such difficulties stem from the human brain's hardwired tendency to seek pleasure and avoid pain. Modern science demonstrates that this survival mechanism served the needs of our earliest ancestors, but is at the root of many problems that we face today, such as depression, compulsive and addictive behaviors, chronic pain, and stress and anxiety.
"Well worth it"

"This works"
There's an old saying: if you eat a live frog first thing each morning, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that it's probably the worst thing you'll do all day. Using "eat that frog" as a metaphor for tackling the most challenging task of your day, the one you are most likely to procrastinate on, but also the one that might have the greatest positive impact on your life, Eat That Frog! shows you how to zero in on these critical tasks and organize your day.
"Procrastination what Procrastination"
In flow, everyday experience becomes a moment by moment opportunity for joy and self-fulfillment. Flow is the brain-child of a fascinating psychologist, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, a renowned social scientist who has devoted his life's work to the study of what makes people truly happy, satisfied and fulfilled. While much of the study of psychology investigates disorders of the human mind, Dr. Csikszentmihalyi takes a different route.
"Fantastically allows you to identify passions"
Alexandra had high hopes: the arse of an athlete, the waist of a supermodel, the speed of a gazelle. Defeated by gyms and bored of yoga, she decided to run. Her first attempt did not end well. Six years later, she has run five marathons in two continents. But, as her dad says, you run with your head as much as with your legs.
"Funny & truthful"
In this engaging collection of essays, author and athlete John Jerome celebrates the simplicity and freedom of running. With contagious passion, he strips away fads and myths to offer basic guidelines for participants, from beginning joggers to those preparing for marathons. For years Jerome recorded his thoughts and experiences during his daily training. As he ran, he discovered not only physical benefits, but philosophical ones as well.
"Enjoyable and motivating"
Once a Runner captures the essence of what it means to be a competitive runner; to devote your entire existence to a single-minded pursuit of excellence. It has become one of the most beloved sports novels ever written. Originally self-published in 1978 and sold at road races out of the trunk of the author's car, reading the book became a rite of passage for many runners, and tattered copies were handed down like sacred texts from generation to generation.
"Simply Lovely"
In 1982, having sold his jazz bar to devote himself to writing, Haruki Murakami began running to keep fit. A year later, he'd completed a solo course from Athens to Marathon, and now, after dozens of such races, he reflects upon the influence the sport has had on his life and on his writing.
"Motivational, Insightful, Poetic"
Is there a large arse-shaped dent in your sofa? Unwatched workout DVDs gathering dust on your shelves? An eye-wateringly expensive (and rarely used) gym membership burning a hole in your bank account? Does the sight of your wobbly thighs leave you cowering under the duvet? Then it's time you faced the truth: the only option is to lace up and hit the ground running. Straight-talking, funny, and brutally honest, Run Fat Bitch Run will give you - yes, you - the push you need to get out of the door, pounding the pavements and shedding pounds.
"I said you'd never see me run."
On the morning of December 22, 2005, New York City firefighter Matt Long was cycling to work when he was struck by and sucked under a 20-ton bus making an illegal turn. The injuries he sustained pushed him within inches of death. Miraculously, after five months in the hospital and more than 40 operations, Matt was able to start his recovery. This book chronicles Matt's road to recovery as he teaches himself to walk again and, a mere three years later, to run in the 2008 New York City Marathon.
"Matt's a hero!"
Quenton Cassidy thought he had left his athletic career far behind as he built a successful professional career in south Florida. But as several personal tragedies and the wear and tear of life began to weigh upon him, he wonders if perhaps he hasn't given up a special part of his life too soon. His return to the world of competitive running is dramatic and revelatory to both the protagonist and the listener, as is his desperate, all-out attempt to make on last Olympic team.

Veteran technology reporter Steven Levy was granted unprecedented access to the company, and in this revelatory book he takes listeners inside Google headquarters - the Googleplex - to explain how Google works.
"Great listen"
A one-page tool to reinvent yourself and your career. The global best seller Business Model Generation introduced a unique visual way to summarize and creatively brainstorm any business or product idea on a single sheet of paper. Business Model You uses the same powerful one-page tool to teach listeners how to draw "personal business models," which reveal new ways their skills can be adapted to the changing needs of the marketplace to reveal new, more satisfying, career and life possibilities.
"a bit disappointing"
In the Fall of 2006, Dean Karnazes, known as "the Lance Armstrong of the running world", took on the ultimate challenge: running 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 consecutive days. Dean set off in a caravan packed with fellow runners, with nothing more than a roadmap and a determination that defied all physical limitations.

"So well written and narrated"
Each day we face a barrage of images and messages from society and the media telling us who, what, and how we should be. We are led to believe that if we could only look perfect and lead perfect lives, we'd no longer feel inadequate. So most of us perform, please, and perfect, all the while thinking, What if I can't keep all of these balls in the air? Why isn't everyone else working harder and living up to my expectations?

Spier reveals his transformation from a Gordon Gekko wannabe, driven by greed, to a sophisticated investor who enjoys success without selling his soul to the highest bidder.
"A must read for Value Investors - great book"
Legions of self-help authors rightly urge personal development as the key to happiness, but they typically fail to focus on its most important objective: hardiness. Though that which doesn't kill us can make us stronger, as Nietzsche tells us, few authors today offer any insight into just how to springboard from adversity to strength. It doesn't just happen automatically, and it takes practice. New scientific research suggests that resilience isn't something with which only a fortunate few of us have been born, but rather something we can all take specific action to develop.
Worry, stress, anxiety - whichever label you prefer to use - can have consequences that impact not only our lives, but the lives of others around us. When we worry it's like the engine of our mind is constantly being revved up. It doesn't allow us time to switch off and rest. It tires us out. And when we're tired we are less likely to think straight. And when we're not thinking straight it's easy to make stupid mistakes and confuse priorities...But relax. There is a way forward.In How Not to Worry Paul McGee shows us that there is a way to tackle life's challenges in a calmer and more considered way. It is possible to use a certain degree of worry and anxiety to spur us on towards positive, constructive action, and then leave the rest behind. With down to earth, real life advice, How Not to Worry helps us understand why worrying is such a big deal and the reasons for it, exposing the behavioural traps we fall into when faced with challenges. It then helps us to move on with tools and ideas to deal with our worries in a more constructive way.Paul McGee is one of Europe's leading motivational speakers and coaches, combining practical strategies with both inspiration and realism. He has spoken in 31 countries to date and is the author of several books, including the bestselling SELF-CONFIDENCE and S.U.M.O. (Shut Up, Move On).
This classic teaching by a Tibetan master continues to inspire both beginners and long-time practitioners of Buddhist meditation. Chgyam Trungpa Rinpoche shows that meditation extends beyond the formal practice of sitting to build the foundation for compassion, awareness, and creativity in all aspects of life. He explores the six activities associated with meditation in action - generosity, discipline, patience, energy, clarity, and wisdom - revealing that through simple, direct experience, one can attain real wisdom.

Photos: Comet ISON May Have Survived Its Blistering Encounter
Originally published on Fri November 29, 2013 3:29 pm
The Comet ISON appears to have survived after disappearing and being thought dead. New NASA photos show the comet emerging from behind the sun smaller and dimmer, but still throwing a big light trail.
As we reported Thursday night, scientists first said there was a chance that the bright streak seen traveling away from the sun was just debris left after the comet blew apart. But after a late-night analysis, NASA now says the comet's nucleus — or a part of it — survived its brush with the sun and is continuing on its journey.
"This whole event has been a roller coaster ride," says Alex Young, a NASA solar physicist. He was hoping to get a wealth of data as the comet passed through the sights of the spaced-based Solar Dynamics Observatory.
"Even though we didn't see what we thought we were going to see, we still saw something new and exciting, and this is exactly why I do this stuff," Young says.
The comet's re-emergence has renewed hope among scientists and amateur star-gazers who wanted ISON to pass close to Earth and create a spectacular show in December's night skies.

Hello all!
I've been an extract brewer for almost 2 years now and I've been thinking of moving to all-grain brewing. I went to my local homebrew shop today to get some advice on the additional equipment that I'll need. My local shop was very adamant that I could not use an 8 gallon boiling kettle. They told me that I would need to get a very large specialized container with a spigot on it. They had a modified keg with the top missing and a hole drilled on the side of it for a spigot, for almost $300! What kind of advice can you guys give me? Do I need this thing? What's the purpose of the spigot? Up until now I've simply been pouring my small kettle into my carboy at the end of the boil, should I not be doing this?
They may be trying to steer you towards what you will be happy with 'down the road', and it's probably good advice anyway.
But, it is possible to do AG with a smaller kettle. Several HBT'ers, myself included, use 30-quart turkey fryer kettles. Do I want a larger kettle? Yes. But a 30-qt will work for full boils. You do need to watch them pretty well to prevent boil overs, but there are ways to prevent that too.
My next kettle will be probably 14 gallons so I can do 10-gal boils.
Just think of what is more important - starting immediately with a smaller budget, or buying more than you need now but something you might want a couple years from now (or sooner).

I've routinely done all grain batches on 5 gallon kettles, but you need to add the wort to them over time; you can't do a full-wort boil. I also have 2 10 gallon kettles and would recommend getting as big a kettle as you can afford. All of my kettles don't have a spigot with them. It would be nice, but after 10 years of brewing, I haven't missed it. Go for the big kettle (maybe ebay?) and skip the spigot.
A converted 13.2 gallon (50 liter European) or 15.5 gallon US keg for a boil kettle is nice to have. You can do full volume boils for 5 or 10 gallon batches (about 6.5 gallons to boil for 5 gallon batch, about 11.5 to 12 gallons for a 10 gallon batch). If you think you might do 10 gallon batches, get the 15.5 gallon keg. They are much more common than the 50 liter anyway.
You'll have to use a propane turkey fryer or build a brew stand to boil on. You won't regret it if you buy or make a converted keg, but paying $300 is way too much for a keg with the top removed and a hole drilled for the spigot. Way way way too much. Way too much. I hope that is clear. Way too much.
You can buy a keg for anywhere from $10 to $30 dollars, usually. Check scrap metal yards and college frat houses. You can get a welder to drill the holes and TIG weld in a stainless 1/2 inch NPT full coupling for $30 per coupling or less. You can cut a 12 inch hole in the top yourself or pay the welder a little more to do it for you. You buy a stainless 1/2 inch ball value for $30, and a 1/2 by 1/2 NPT hex nipple for a couple of bucks, a brass barb fitting for the valve outlet where you'll connect your hose, a compression fitting and less than a foot of 1/2 inch copper tube for a pickup on the inside of the keg, and you're in business for about $100. You can reduce that by $25 or so dollars by using a brass value and brass hex nipple instead of stainless.
If you are going to pay $300, get a fully built kettle with everything done and ready to go. There are some nice 14 gallon pots that'll fit on a stove, assuming your stove can manage to bring 7 or 12 gallons of liquid to a boil; most stoves cannot do that.
There's no way I'd spend $300 on a boil kettle. I built all three of my converted kegs (boil kettle, mash tun, and hot liquor tank) for a little over $400 with stainless values and nice thermometers. But if I was going to spend that much, I'd pop a few more bucks and get a 15 gallon Blichmann Boilermaker Brew Pot. It is completely built out with stainless ball valve, a very slick snap-in pickup tube, sight gauge, and top quality Blichmann thermometer for $358. You'd be sorry you spent $300 on a half-converted keg after looking at the Blichmann Boilermaker.
There's some liquid stuff called Ferm Control you can get off northernbrewer's website. It controls foaming in the boil and/or primary (no blow-off).
That'd let you boil 6.5gals in an 8gal pot.
You should be able to get a keg with the top cut off for $100 or so from the prices I've seen. $300? pfffffft!
Is it true that the foam control products also effect head retention?
You can also find 60 qt Aluminum, or even sometimes 60 qt Stainless Steel, stockpots at restaurant supply stores (google Instawares for one) or Amazon for less than $100 - if you check fairly recent posts under Equipment, there's an Amazon deal right now on a 60 qt Alum for less than $40.
HBT is a great resource for making your own weldless fitting on the cheap.
In short, $300 is a BIG rip for a keggle unless it's electric heated, has a brewmometer, tri-clamp S/S valve, and sight tube. And it cooks dinner for you too.
Keggles should be in the 100-150 range if kind of "used looking"... I know the ebay dude that posts here (I forgot your name, sorry!!!) sells closer to 200 but his are very nice looking and very well welded. Different than a DIY sort of item.
Just get a big stockpot and you'll be just as happy. Might be less heavy than a keggle too, my back ****** hurts right now! (Just cleaning up after my boil on a keggle. *grooooan*)Edit: No. Fermcap is not supposed to hurt head retention. Myth.
If you can afford it, go with the keggle you will be glad you did. I would however steer away from LHBS for it. go direct to Sabco (or similar) or better yet Ebay to get one with spigot, I have 2 Sabco Keggles one set up for Mashing one for boiling.. I paid less than $350 for both on Ebay

Wonk Warning: What follows is a long and detailed post wrapping up last week's POPRC6 meeting. Read at your own risk!
I recently spent a week in Switzerland attending the sixth meeting of the Stockholm Convention's Persistent Organic Pollutants Review Committee. As I reported on Friday, the Committee voted late in the day to recommend a global phaseout of endosulfan, an antiquated organochlorine insecticide.
Otter populations in the UK have made a remarkable comeback from the brink of extinction. According to the Guardian, their recovery is largely due to less polluted rivers resulting from UK bans on organochlorine pesticides (OCs) in the 1970s. Not only is the water safer for the otters, who are high up in the aquatic food chain, but also for their prey: fish populations have likewise recovered.
It's been a real nail-biter, but at about 5 pm today, the committee decided to recommend a global ban on endosulfan! As predicted, India would not agree, so the committee was forced to a vote. In the end, there were 24 votes for a ban, 5 abstentions, and no votes against.

Getting a swarm out of a tree
I have a question that one of you guys can answer. I have a neighbor friend who has a colony of bees in an oak tree near his house. The entrance is about four feet from the ground. It is an active hive and probably been there for years. If I fix a place to mount my hive box near there entrance and put a screen funnel over there entrance so they will have to go through my hive box will they homestead in my hive box by the end of the year? He does not want to destroy the bees and I don't either and does not want the tree cut. I am open for suggestions and don't mind working........thanks in advance Mancle
The queen cannot fly unless she is getting ready to swarm. She may walk out if you catch her near the mouth of the tree-hive and you aim the smoke exactly right. The odds of that happening are about the same as 29 cent a gallon gas in the next month. Although it is hard to fathom, the only way to get the present queen into your box is to cut the tree down. I have had this question ask to me at least a hundred times. Sorry.
Assuming that you can make a tight seal with the tree, and assuming that this box you weld to the tree can stay there indefinitely, and assuming that the cavity in the tree is quite limiting, then it may be possible that in the next year or 2 the hole in the tree would get crowded and the bees would use your hive. However, the propensity of the queen is to move into the upper part of the comb for the winter, so if she did go to your box to lay in the summer (doubtful, for reasons to be explained), she would almost certainly go back to the tree in the winter, assuming that the hole extends above your box.
The reason she would probably not lay in the box: as the hive is emptied (cold weather) and filled, different areas become available. The workers will more readily fill the closer space (your box) with pollen and nectar/honey. This means that the queen would probably run into already filled comb if she did want to move into your box. As you may know, adjacent cells in a comb are generally filled with like matter. That is, if the center of the frame has honey in it, the queen will likely look elsewhere for a place to lay. She does not usually scatter her eggs around (signs of a bad problem).
So, although you may not want to believe it, or are hoping for some magical solution, chances are that if you want to get the queen you will have to be extraordinarily immpossibly lucky or will cut the tree. If you have any other ideas, or come up with a solution, please post back. This sort of question comes up a lot (bees in a wall, etc.)and I have not seen an easy answer. Sorry.
I Was doing some woodwork today, making a game board (go), and as I vacumed up some of the wood chips it occured to me that you could probably vacume up sturdy insects like bees relatively easily given a shop vac of sufficiently large size, Can this be done or is there some factor that I havent taken into account?
I used to have a bee vacuum too, and what I also found was that the queen will run into the farthest crack, some of the workers are crushed, the rest of the bees are pi**ed off, and the drone of the vacuum is worse that a bonnet full of angry bees. Whoever invented the bee vacuum was not into saving the bees it vacuumed up, it was meant to get rid of bees IMHO.
Bees aren't that sturdy, their wings are gossamer thin plaques. Subjecting them to that kind of force means that many of the ones who are subjected to this wind tunnel are doomed to spending the rest of their days as disabled workers, and bee hives are not equipped with handicapped accessories. Workers that can't fly don't live long.
i am no expert. i have been keeping bees for a few years. people occassionally call to remove swarms from their yards, holes in trees. sides of houses. often i can get the whole swarm with the queen. other times i rescue/save as many bees as possible. and add them to one of my other hives.
it would be nice to save the queen but it strikes me that saving the workers is better than having an exterminator kill them all.
my 2 cents.
workers live 3-5 more weeks after you remove them. They have no chance in reproduction. Grabbing workers and throwing them into an existing hive can be helpful. But long term, saving the workers would resign the queen to death by chilling and starvation. You may as well destroy them all.
Removing a swarm is not difficult. This thread is wrongly titled as removing a swarm from a tree, when it should be, removing a colony from a tree.
I have an Idea....not sure if it will work.[Newbie, first Year with two hives]
Take, lets say a 3/4 or 1" auger drill and drill a hole or two on top of the cavity on a angle down into
the cavity, put your hive box with some drawn comb, perhaps some lure, like lemon grass essential Oil or whatever it's called on top of the hole [secure good to the tree] then drill into the bottom of the hive body [same size] & make connection with a rubber hose.
It will bee a good possibility, that the bees will go up thru the hose into supper when the honey flow is on and eventually the queen too.
I would leave it there, perhaps up to 2 years and you can check if there is brood later on and take
the box down when you see the queen there.
Remember, bees like to go up!
Very true, Carol. We are not dealing with a swarm anymore. Swarms are playthings. Colonies in a tree are almost always lethal to either the tree or the colony after removal.
I've dipped bees out of chimenies, wired feral comb into a frame, removed exterior siding to get at colonies and sawed hollow trees down. In most of these cases I was sucessful at getting a living hive.
I've also propped up supers on ladders with wire funnels, set drawn comb on stumps with the bees below the super, and smoked bees from one side of a wall with a super (with filled honey cells) on the other. All I got were workers who needed to be combined. If you have a weak hive this can help, but mostly it is a pain in the @ss that takes more time than it's worth, but I really believe that beekeepers should go through this for just learning. Knowledge itself is worth lots.
Hi Conrad, the word 'hose' connotes a small diameter circular tunnel. If you watch bees for any length of time, you will see that they almost never never enter such places. A crevice in a tree that is real deep is rarely used, and the holes on the sides of buildings musn't be very deep for the bees to use it. (A layer of siding, a layer of sheathing, we're dealing with maybe 2 inches at most.) After traffic has been established, then the smells and all that are right, the bees can get used to it.
Let's look at it from a bee's viewpoint. You prefer to fly than walk, and some of your biggest enemies are spiders. Having to go into a small tunnel and walk many many steps through an enclosed tube where a spider could be waiting or the web spun across the opening is a scary thing. Rather, enter from the outside, grab the loot, exit and fly back to your hive. In the mean time, since nobody has ownership of the box with drawn comb, nobody patrols for wax moth, and you know what happens there. (First year newbie? If you've never had wax moth, may you never be the wiser because of it.) If there is no entrance from the outside, the bees are likely to propalize the end of the 3/4 inch hose. Good thought, and I can't say that it will never work because never is a long time. But faced with that circumstance (or with an established colony in a wall), I ask "Can I cut the tree down?" Or, "Can I rip the outside of the wall off?" When the answer is "No", then I wish them a good day and leave. Life is too short and hives are too cheap to spend all the time and effort needed to bring out a colony through a crack, with a small chance of sucess after all that.
How about modifying Conrads advice with an apparatus/contraption using pvc pipe and some plywood. Since only 4 feet from ground should be easy to work on.
Have seen observation hives where this pipe is used as a tunnel. Have also tried a honey shack for two years where the entrance had black pvc pipe through the wall enshrouded to the bottom entrance. (Also a meshed open window above for the top entrance).
If you are able to enshroud(using pvc pipe, pvc elbows, plywood, nails and cement) their entrance and force the bees to pass through your super, say by piping through the back of the super, over time they may move in.
The plumbing pipe has about a 3" internal diameter and a rubber hose might get a pinched/blocked pathway, so structurally overall.
A sort of interesting aside is that Ive used cement to fill
a hollow in a huge wild cherry tree. An oak may or may not resent such an attachment. I recently heard even mulching an oak too deeply can kill it some how over time, but also heard that theyre very adaptive to various external assaults, so go figure.
A bee vacuum should never been a full power shop vac with a box. It can't be that strong. There are various methods for reducing power.
I saw a handmade one at a bee association that had the neatest way to prevent injury to the bees landed in the box. At the hose entry into the the box they attached a cheap plastic glove hanging down with the tips of the fingers cut off. This was tight enough to slow the bees down, soft enough to prevent their injury and they dropped into the box from there.
Enclosed is a link to construction of a bee vac (without the surgical glove landing device though)
Here is a link that might be useful: Bee vac
After reading all of these ideas, I'm curious. Would vmarcos's idea work? If so, would it hurry it along if you put a little smoke in the tree to send the bees up into the supers? Of course, the supers would have to be out of the way of the smoke.
Also, in order to lure them in, wouldn't you have to either use honey or extract of what ever crop they are working? I was told that you can't use just any extract, they are focusing on one certain crop at a time. Any thoughts?
Hello bee experts. I don't mean to deter you from the subject at hand, but you all seem to be very knowledgeable about bees and so I will take an opportunity to ask for help with something:
4 days ago we noticed a bee swarm about the size and shape of an upside down pineapple, hanging from the ceiling of our outdoor entryway to our office. Not knowing what to do, I went online to find the answer. I've since learned the following:
1) Swarms are supposedly normally docile - so long as you don't mess with them.
2) They are supposedly just hanging around waiting until the scouts find a new colony, and should go away in a few days or so.
3) That the only way to get rid of them seems to be to call in the experts.
Herein lies my problem. I am an expat living in Guatemala and there are no beekeepers to call. I am sure there is the¨"Guatemalan way" to get rid of them, but I don't want to see them killed. However, I do know that there is a possibility that this swarm may be of the "Africanized" variety - due to my geographic location in the world.
Does anyone have any advice about what I should do? I don't want to kill the bees, but I don't want to jeopardize our entire office if there is a possibility that they might get pissed off and attack someone as they are coming into work.
Shouldn't they have gone away by now (4 days)? Is it possible that they're planning to stay forever?
Thanks so much for time and advice!
Best regards,
James Goller
I still maintain the screen funnel idea ends up with chilled brood and a dead queen.
I got a call on Monday about a tree downed on the weekend, with a nest of bees.
It was the easiest tree removal I'd ever done. The hollow of the tree was exposed, but the bees were gentle indicating among other things that the queen was in there somewhere.
I vacuumed up the bees in my home made bee vac, and I cut out the comb, and any with serious amounts of brood, it was trimmed into rectangular shape and tied into frames. Once all the comb was in frames in a hive body, I shook the bees out the vacuum cage over the frames. I left the hive body next to the downed tree.
Next day, the log was filled with bees again. I thought "Oh no, I missed getting the queen." But the log was hollow and had no comb, only remaining pheromone scent, I suppose. I looked into the hive body and there were some bees in there.
The next day, I figured I'd vacuum them up again, but when I approaced the log, there were no bees there. And the hivebody was full.
Moral, don't assume the worst. Don't be in a hurry to do stuff. Give the bees a chance to mourn the loss of a home then watch them do the right thing.
The owner has three choices live with the bees in the tree, cut the tree down and give the section to a bee keeper to move to another location may be used as a OBSERVATION HIVE OF HONEY BEES note if the tree is hollowed out then it will attract other swarms, the other I donÂt want to say but here it is: pesticides but I do hope not, for 2 reasons! it kills a hive of bees and the wax honey and brood is left behind to attract other swarms.
I had never seen this until it happened to me today. I was washing my windows when I heard the "buzz". Initially I was freaked out and ran inside. After the bees settled in my backyard, I called a bee keeper. He dilligently climbed a ladder and scooped approximately 15,ooo bees (his estimate) into a 5-Gal pail with a cover. He grabbed the queen and most of the workers and will start a new colony. Consider me a soft heart fool, but I still have about a cantaloupe size "ball of bees" in my apple tree. I fear these guys will die off soon unless they return back to where they came from. I know that honey bees are dying, at an alarming rate, but a majrity was saved thanks to a dilligent bee keeper. When in doubt, call a bee keeper to remove an open swarm safely.

Libya paid more than $750K in fees since September to The Livingston Group for its work to improve ties with the U.S. That sum generated half of the firm's foreign fees.
The firm of former Speaker-designate Bob Livingston organized events at Libya's Embassy, met with Senators/Congressmen, pitched corporations (ExxonMobil, Carlyle Group, Northrop Grumman) and squired a military delegation around D.C., according to TLG's federal filing.
Lobbyist Lauri Fitz-Pegado is one of those helping handle the Libya account. Formerly with Hill & Knowlton, Fitz-Pegado is best known for her work promoting the first Gulf War.
