GB Beekeeping Tool Set

We searched for the best tools for new beekeepers. Bought them in volume. And, in the case of the frame grip we made the best even better. We added in half a pound of easy to light, long smoking raw cotton. And, then priced it at the cost some sell the smoker for alone!

The smoker is 4" x 7" stainless steel with safety shield. The best size for 6 hives or less. Smokes for hours on 2 onces of cotton. Buying a smoker without a safety shield is like buying a car without bumpers.

Our hive tool is 9.5" to give you good leverage. The sharp end is for loosening tops and supers. The curved end is for scraping, and prying frames glued down by propolis.

You won't need the frame grip for the first month or so. But when your bees have had a little time to glue the frames down with propolis, you will be glad you have one on hand. We tried them all, and only had one complaint. They all work on a frame full of brood just fine. But, if it was a deep frame half full of honey, the all metal handles were a pain! So we took the best metal frame grip, wrapped the handles in foam and then tape. Now, it works great and feels fine too.
