This is the set-up I have for cleaning and sterilizing old frames and hives -- and for extracting bees' wax from comb and cappings. It looks a bit rough -- but it works really well -- and cost me nothing at all. You could pay a fortune for a steam wax-extractor, but why would you? This one uses the hive boxes for the steaming chamber and an old gas bottle as a water boiler.
This is an important part of beekeeping -- it's part of the process of recycling and sterilizing equipment, and it accesses all that wonderful wax. Solar wax extractors just don't work here in Ireland (or, more accurately they work on one or two days in the year) and anyway they're too small for my needs -- so here's what I came up with. I hope it helps and inspires you. (Please like and share!)
Notes: 1. Hot steam will burn you badly, so be careful!
2. Doing anything with an old gas bottle is also potentially dangerous unless you are certain that it contains no gas. I find it necessary to remove the small frame that protects the valve so I can get at it with a spanner. The copper pipe fittings didn't quite match the thread -- but there's no pressure in the system so this isn't a problem. 3. This process sterilizes very well, but because we have AFB (American Foul Brood) in Ireland, I like to soak them in a bleach solution as well.

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
