About this event
Wax Dipping Weekend
Wax dipping woodenware is a terrific way to preserve your hive parts for over 20 years. Wooden ware is dipped at a temperature of 270 degrees for 10 minutes to boil the water out of the wood and replace with wax. Pricing is $4 per piece (generally you only need to dip hive bodies, top covers and bottom boards).
Only new, unpainted items can be dipped. There has been some success painting immediately after removing from the wax.
Saturday, Sep 21, 9am - 1pm: George's Farm (97 Temple Rd Glen Mills, Pa 19342)
If you would like to drop your stuff off and pick it up at the end of the day, please write your name on it using a black sharpie.
Sometimes the line of stuff to dip is long, so please bring a snack to have or share with your fellow CCBA members. We look forward to seeing some of our members in person at our wax dipping weekend.
