Made a start on chopping out the foindation on the hive that failed.

Badly infested with wax moth so had to break out the blowtorch. I think I'll upgrade to a plumbers MAP gas burner this year.

The wax has gone into the warming cabinet, a ceramic bulb provides the heat, controlled by a standard stc 100 controller.
