Improved marking pot lid #6

Open lionfish0 opened 3 months ago

Make wider square holes [although current design is ok]
Need an outer lid to stop bee escaping
Send over design once it works

Notes: -Here are the exact marking tubes we are using (https://www.dadant.com/catalog/m01946-queen-marking-cage-with-plunger?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIk5n0vLHRhAMVWmdHAR2EBwA4EAQYASABEgLMqvD_BwE), however the website did not include specs. Attached photos show the opening to measure 4.1cm (1.7 in).

The tubes and lids we are currently using seem to be effective and the grid wide enough to successfully mark a bee without injury or trouble.
