Ever try pressure washing plastic foundation? As soon as the pressurized water hits the foundation.....away it goes. I came up with the idea for a fixture to hold the foundation securely and not only that, it's easy to load it up. Check out the video and let me know your thoughts. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Brother Jeff.... you have be the hardest working person I have ever seen.... and it is all done with a huge smile. I wish I could be more that that. I think I will go lie down now... that was exhausting work you did there.
Is this the beekeeper version of "hold my beer"? 🤣 Except it's hold my foundations
Next time... rubber boots?
I like the foundation holder!
Thnx 4 sharing.

Good idea using the pressure washer 😊💕👍
Great ideal gives the bees a head start
That's a nice setup.
Jeff you are very clever. The Abbey would miss you if you leave. God be with you always and your fiancee'.
Jeff, thats inspiration for someone to build a machine with a pressure washer and feed mechanism to continuously clean them.
Literally while watching this my engineering wheels are already turning in my head.
@@MattHolstein exactly what I was thinking.
Nice setup. I need to power wash my riding mower later today and I have several foundations that need this treatment. Thanks for the video.
Perfect. I only had time for a short video today. Still interesting. Have a good weekend Jeff.
Great video
Great idea.
I usually use (a recommend) a plastic "flat" (like a low sided milk crate) that soda bottles are in when they are shipped to stores. It works darn near perfect
Great power washer. It looks therapeutic.
Nice jig. Pressure washing to move through dirty frames quickly.
I did that once, cleaned over 300 foundation and swore I would NEVER do that again! But with prices the way they are I guess I will humble myself.
It's the simple thing that bring jou, right? Nothing spells happy like a useful time-saving gadget!!
Hey Jeff, I hope the Monks know that you borrowed their dishwasher from their kitchen...lol Take care, and God Bless.
Good idea. Thanks. God bless.
Great job, good idea. Thanks for sharing!
Quick and effective
Creative solution. A little low tech combined with high pressure.
I see you finally got your machine out of the pawn shop. This weekend can you pressure wash my driveway? I’ve got $375 burning a hole in my pocket. 😉
Inside joke for Mr. Ed.
He might just do it too, pressure washing is so addictive, like a chainsaw. I got so bored during “lockdown” that I pressure washed our church parking lot and loved every minute.
I'm loading the washer as I speak. Get ready to lose some weight in your pockets. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
You do pretty good wood working for a bee keeper. GBWYou!
Clever👍🏼🐝
That's cool, unBEElievably clean wow !! 🐝🐝🐝
Never stand between a man and his toys. He’ll figure out a new use for them every time. 👍😊
Great idea Jeff. There are so many tools that can be repurposed for beekeeping. Thanks for sharing
You could always use a wallpaper steamer and a few old brood boxes.
Just a bit to slow for me. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Hey Mr. Ed, I saw someone recently put their foundations in a vat of liquid that makes that stuff come right off. I'll try to find and it post it as it was way less work than even the pressure washer.
ruclips.net/video/rDxLA6MKa3k/видео.html still requires a power wash I suppose but makes it simple as well. I think your way works too really well.
I'd love to see that! Thanks Ray and God's peace.
Mr. Ed
yes sir awesome forsure
Like that would of liked to have seen a close up of the frame holder
Sorry, I just did not think of it. Next time I will. God's peace Randall.
Mr. Ed
Due to the loud noise the pressure washer makes, I hope you are protecting you ears!!
I have quite a few I need to hit with the power washer.
Looks like you had a... blast 🤭
Hiya Jeff
I'll try this next season. Say Jeff, you once had a video on building a vacuum box (it had a bottom with a slanted floor) and I made one like yours. I noticed you using a similar once recently but it looked like the design had changed. The inner screen looked different. Have you changed the design? I've had some problems with mine related to the screen.
The design and the bee vac are the very same as in the video. However, I now no longer remove the screen to release the bees, I simply remove the screened board and release the bees. I find it much simpler, and the bees do far better. God's peace Darrell.
Mr. Ed
Thanks Jeff.
After this you rewax the foundation and put them in new wooden frames? I've got a pile I may try this on.
It beats buying new ones that's for sure. Thanks for watching. God's peace Justin.
Mr. Ed
Why dont you use beeswax foundations? You could pour them yourselves and the wax foundations could also be used when rolled and wrapped around a candle wick to produce candles? Hello to you over there.
I apply beeswax to the plastic foundation after it is cleaned. I have found the plastic foundation will not blow out when spinning the frames in my extractor Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 450 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Daniel.
Mr. Ed
Wonder if the floor mat clips at the car wash will hold foundation...
I don't own a pressure washer
They will not, I tried. God's peace Kevin.
Mr. Ed
💕👍
What is the PSI rating of the pressure washer?
It is a 4,000 PSI washer. God's peace Duane.
Mr. Ed
Lol I do the same thing drop them down on the lawn in their frames and they dont go anywhere.
Is that one of those assault pressure washers?
At 4,000 psi, it certainly could have been. Thanks for watching. God's peace Dickey.
Mr. Ed
What’s the benefit of power washing you frames?
The frames are not pressure washed, it's the plastic foundations that were inside of the frame, and they were covered with junk that needs to be removed. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Bobby.
Mr. Ed
I enjoy all your videos!! Keep on posting because I’ll be watching.
Bobby G (Ret NYPD Detective turned bee keeper)😉
Rookie bee keeper, lol
Put it on stand and save your back-Old/Man
how many PSI is that one?
4,000. It's a beast. God's peace Warren.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Oh my lord.
It isn't fair to have the darn power washer blessed so it starts on just one pull, though.... ;)
You saved $6 in 2min 50seconds that’s I think $120 an hour
Not bad pay for a bee wrangler. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Beats dropping them into a vat of hot water...
IMO, doing it on a concrete surface would be better....less gravel/dirt flying around.
