Hi, I posted some pics of my new KTBH (kenyan top bar hive) I discussed here some months ago...As you can see I tried to follow your advices:They perform well! thanks. For painting I used a homemade paint:The swedish paint made with flour,cooked in water then I added natural color,linseed oil ,some "black soap" and little iron sulfate .It's cheap and can last up to 10 years! and dies in one hour...
