Solar beeswax melter

For Beekeepers, it is essential to be able to make use of the bees wax as a valuable product alongside the honey. The most popular way to harvest the wax is by solar wax melter. Beekeeping is my hobby and caring for bees always inspires new ideas and inventions. Here is how we made our solar wax melter out of a used wine barrel.

  • Nanny seems to be a clever project manager. She supervises her human laborers all the while chilling.

    • É verdade, ela inspeciona sim, o seu trabalho! É uma gatinha muito inteligente! Você trabalha muito bem com madeira, mostra que tem conhecimento no assunto. Mais acredito que tem mais do que isso, você fez algum curso de desenho industrial, por exemplo? E ou marcenaria? Você realiza projetos difíceis e muito elaborados e isso não é qualquer um que faz! Você é bom no que faz! 👏👏👏👏

  • My grandfather had Bee Hives an when he was getting the honey out if you were good he would give you some bees wax to chew!. It was a treat! Something you didn't get all the time! I was very young but I set real still an watched him squeeze the honey through cloth. He had big hands! I thought about a couple hives but I guess not. A cat or raccoon would get into them! Wonted to share my memories. Thanks for sharing your life!

  • Nanny is the ultimate supervisor and boss - she lends a supportive paw as Daddy is presenting the latest project at hand - and she makes sure to be right on top (literally...) of things, as she gently supervises Daddy, while he's creating the blueprint... making him believe that it's all his idea, when in fact it's been Nanny's, all along...😉 Nanny is my kind of Lady!🐾❤ (You've been on my mind for the past few weeks, it's so nice to see that You and Your Daddy are doing well, and I'm already looking forward to Your next upload, Nanny!🐾💕😊) 💙💛🌹💜🍎🇺🇸

  • You are the most amazing man I have ever (not) met (& desperately wish I could). Your carpentry skills are extraordinary to say the least. I have loved every video you've made, & of course, love Nanny to pieces. She is such a sweetheart, Daddy's little helper, who loves you, & is in a home where she is so loved too. Our kitties are about the same age, & my Smokey's facial structure is so similar they could be siblings, so I have a special affinity for her. I wonder if you are weathering the winter there, or have gone south to warmer climes? I always look forward to your videos. May you have a blessed holiday, no matter where you are.

  • While you were making the wooden frame for the front of the barrel it looked as though you were *actually* making a Bear sized toilet seat for Dandy, the Bear, ready for when he comes visiting next year. 😉🤭😅 Joking aside, might I respectfully make a suggestion? With the best will in the world, beeswax gets everywhere no matter how hard you try. So it may be worth your while to line the inside of the lower access panel in the same way you did for rest of the barrel. It will be much easier to maintain/keep clean; wax and dirt won't build up around the screws etc. Either way, you looked as though you had a lot of fun and satisfaction with this project; under Nanny's careful *furpurrvision* of course.😉😅

You may get a bonus for this excellent project. I am duly impressed by your supplies and tools. Many great woodworking tools to make the job perfect and easier. You are a Master at whatever you do Darius, a joy to watch. I'm 79 and thoroughly enjoy your many projects (my favorite: the fantastic dining room table) of course I realize Nanny was an integral part of the project, a work of art. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

  • In colder climates maybe a double glazed glass cover rather than the thermoplastic one might be more effective to help raise the temperature. Of course this would have to be custom-made & be more costly but ultimately should be more durable; it just depends on an individual's priorities.

  • I love beeswax, I always use beeswax candles and lip balm. I buy my wax from our local ‘honey man’ I also make my own encaustic paint with it. The smell is gorgeous. With the temperature achieved and the small hole for the drips, is the extracted wax mostly pure, no debris? (I was wondering if it would smell like wine but I guess not with all that lining and insulation, too bad!) Nanny loves good craftsmanship and creative problem solving that respect nature’s produce and the hard work that ensures nothing is wasted. So good to see your name pop up. So good to see you both doing well. Happy Healthy holiday and New Year to you both.
