Phantom Scroller Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Here's a few things I've been busy with. I cut down a black bambo and made the bee house and the business holder is made from oak and a dowel and lastly the e-cig holder is made from African tiger wood made for a friend at work. If you don't know what a E.CIG is it one of these http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk/ for the people trying not to smoke.

wombatie Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 They're great Roly. I am honestly intrigued with the bee house. Do you get any honey out of them or do they just have their babies in there? Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get any honey out of them or do they just have their babies in there? Marg Marg they use them to hatch there young and only make enough honey to feed them selves and the young and once they have laid them they seal the ends and the next year the young make there way out and so it starts again. here endeth the lesson in bee houses. Also ladybirds and other insects over winter in them there great to pollen-ate your flowers. Roly wombatie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
