> Langstroth hive frames can weigh as much as 40 to 90 pounds and must be lifted up out of the hive.
For anyone surprised or unfamiliar, that’s the weight of an entire box with 8-10 frames, not the weight of a single frame—while that’d be delightful in terms of honey production, it’d be miserable when doing hive checks, etc.
