    Hi Ian here’s a new joke to change it up a little. Or rather a limerick:
    The bee has such a busy soul
    It has no time for birth control
    That is why, in times like these,
    There are so many sons of bees
    Good luck for the rest of your season and greetings from southern France.

    This is what the new generation will not understand in order for a business to grow. You have to make lots of sacrifices and lots of time and money for it grow. lan Puts a lot of time and money into his operation. Very impressed with this guy's operation always enjoyed watching his videos

    Great idea on weighing boxes. Get some cards and stick on the fronts of boxes so you can determine which queens are the honey producers.

    If you have a scale maybe you can write the weight on the front lip of the hive lid going in to the shed then in the winter walk thru and record

      Oh no, I had the opportunity to be the distributor but I don’t have the time to sell loaders. Do you realize how many guys (just like me) complaining about service issues?! Lol
      An Ezyloader sales man would be a time consuming job

      Has help and the flow is on. Every keeping is in a good mood when the money (honey) is flowing in and can basically coast and watch it happen while the minions sweat buckets tossing boxes.
      The “beekeeping” season is over and the box slinging has begun.

    Things are looking decent. Glad you found the issue with the boom. I am sure that boom parking "trick" is in the manual.(My wife keeps telling me I need to read the manuals) The slow ramp up, is there a way to clamp a meter on there and see the current flow and see if the current slowly ramps or is it the same current from start. IF the current is slow then ramps up and the motor speeds up, maybe u could have a capacitor in there to store some current to give that instant pickup?

    Let me know if you have trouble with that park position. Mine will often keep rotating the arm well past it. I have to retry it a number of times before it finds it and allows the unit to drop.
