How To Assemble a Pura or Propola Hive Body With Ben Tursam!

Hive body assembly doesn’t have to be frustrating.

In fact, at Premier Bee Products we have engineered our hive bodies for easy assembly.

We put in the work with thoughtfully designed self-squaring joints so that you could buzz through the assembly process and end up with a great finished product.

In this video, our production manager, Ben Tursam, walks you through each step giving little tips along the way.

Before jumping into it, let’s gather what items you need.

You will need:
▶️ HIVEBOND 4000 wood glue (Or any waterproof wood glue)
▶️ Rubber mallet
▶️ Hive body kit 
▶️ Disposable cup
▶️ Wood glue brush
▶️ Staple gun and safety glasses
Or
▶️ 7 D framing nails

With your supplies gathered let’s dig into the assembly.
