Reinbeau, your golden jar of honey is fabulous! We were not mechanical either when we were keeping our bees--everything was done by hand, smoker, hive tool...I'll never forget standing over our kitchen sink, squeezing honey comb in new panty hose, wearing out my arms and hands, but ending up with jars and jars of beautiful strained honey. We also loved the comb honey and made many gifts of it to friends and family. Great memories from this thread. ~G
