First honey harvest

2013-09-04-20.12.07.jpg

I harvested my first ever full frame of honey today, what an exciting moment to take a frame of honey from the hive knowing that I'm not putting it back in. The slight problem is I have no way of extracting the honey without damaging the comb that the bees spent so much time building. Think I need to spend a few hours on Google looking for extraction methods. I do intend to invest in an extractor but they can cost from €500 up to €1,500 depending on the size and if it is manual or electric.
