The new and improved Good Morning thread!

I'm half inclined to take a hammer to them and save myself the hassle. They are both craftsman brand, so not high dollar or quality. The one does kind of intrigue me though. Instead of string it runs a saw blade, or cable in place of the string. I've never had one like that, might be kind of fun, and maybe a little dangerous.
I had a Stihl several years ago and couldn't start it one day and got so pissed I decided to buy a battery DeWalt, haven't regretted it. It's the same battery I have for all my other cordless tools so I have plenty of spare batteries and chargers. A fully charged battery gives me about 20 minutes of run time.

That's a honey bee hive I found today about 25 feet up in a tree. The tree limb that they were in busted off as you can see. This tree sits next to a gate way to one of my fields. I'm going to try to build a box and get up there and cover the hive sometime here in the near future. They won't survive the winter otherwise.

I've already resigned myself to the fact I'm probably going to get stung. I do know someone that i can borrow a bee suit from though. I guess my biggest worry is going to be the ladder, and hauling a box and drill up that high, probably use a rope to pull stuff up.

I have never tried to do anything with bees other than outrun them to the water, but would they migrate if you put a beehive box near them or is it you have to build around them?
