Usage examples
  • Most beekeepers provide "standard hives" for their bees. The hives are made up of several removable drawerlike "supers" (sections). The bees build their honeycombs inside the supers on movable frames that hang three-eights of an inch apart. Bees can pass through this "bee space" to all parts of the hive, and the beekeeper can move the frames about. Each super holds 10 combs, and each comb contains about 6,600 cells.
