We use an unplaned board that is 70 mm wide and 18 mm thick, made from untreated wooden pallets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Proper tilt.<\/strong> The slope has an angle of just a few degrees\u2014enough to allow bees to land and take off, for bees to remove waste from the hive, and for water to drain. The extension is a perfect continuation of the Nicot bottom board and its slope\u2014not a 20% ski slope.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A robust and secure extension.<\/strong> 2 milled mounting points on the sides and 3 optional ones on the bottom. The screws are used to securely hold the board between the extensions. Once screwed in place, the assembly becomes integral with the hive body and can only be removed by unscrewing at least one side. Use 3.5 x 20 mm, 25 mm, or 30 mm wood screws.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Designed to fit the Nicot floor.<\/strong> A short, reinforced structure with inserts that fit perfectly and deeply into the side structure of the floor. The carefully designed structure makes it easy to install planks of various widths, up to 100 mm (and wider, but for what purpose?). The extension is initially self-supporting thanks to the extension brackets and is simply held in place by the side screws at the appropriate spacing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>0 damage, 0 changes to your Nicot floors<\/strong> : Do not modify or drill holes in the Nicot plastic base.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A real tool, not just a gadget.<\/strong> The design is the result of pragmatic analyses (we have populated hives!), insights from experienced beekeepers, and verified, reliable sources. The result is an ApiObi innovation that is not available anywhere else on the market for beehive accessories and components (3D, manufactured products, specialty stores, etc.).<\/li>\n<li>For the price listed, you can immediately download (link included in your order confirmation) the PREMIUM 3D files in STL format for the right and left extensions.
