""What wire mesh or screen is the best for the frames for our new hives?"" You dont use wire mesh it is called "foundation" it either comes in wax or plastic the bees make comb on the foundation. I think most people are better off buying frames (I do) and build the boxes and other parts of the hive, there are plans for anything you need for a hive @ beesource.com

I thought someone on this forum said that American manufacturers design the friges to hold pizza boxes? I agree with Rayna--take a box with you and try. I'm sure the local pizzeria would be happy to give you a nice new clean one considering the amount of business you give them. Of course, they'd have to go in where the door bin isn't. That said, I've been measuring Sub Zeroes a lot. The shelves are 13-14" deep including the lip edge and the door bins are about 4-5" deep (I can't remember the exact measurement). And, of course, they are adjustable height and come off. Plus there has to be an air gap. So it might just fit. If you're interested in the fully integrated models with drawers it might fit better in one of the drawers. The Bosch/Thermador ones have 10" shelves but much deeper door compartments. I don't think they're deep enough however, though they just might be. I realize that the teach 'em to package the pizza answers are frustrating because that wasn't the question you were asking, but the fridge will still be around when the teenagers (hopefully) have gone to college and beyond, so I think we're trying to give you short term solutions so that you can concentrate on other features for long term. In that spirit, only wanting to be helpful, and having done my best to actually answer your question to the best of my recollection, there is a mid ground. On the assumption that the multiple pizzas have different toppings and need to be consolidated anyway, you could get a big food storage box and have the guys pick up the pizza, including the liner if there is one, and dump it in layers in the box. If they're not that picky about the storage to begin with, and that ravenous, I don't think they'll be bothered with a few toppings adhering to the bottoms of the pieces on top. This wouldn't be any harder than consolidating the left over pieces into one or two pizza boxes, and if the storage box lives in the fridge, and you and your DW don't mind standard teenage ideas of couth, it wouldn't even have to be washed every time. Or figure that you'll do other things for the planet and use disposable catering boxes.

Whether you can double up more than one wire in the hole on the bus bar depends on what the manufacturer says. You may be able to install an additional bar on certain panels. You can always use some other listed terminal or connector to join the wires together before the bus bar.

The drawers are why I haven't looked at Ikea. It's not the quality of the metal interior drawers, it's the look I don't like. I prefer wood drawers. However, we had a cabinet maker tell us he made cabinets for 30+ years and he said "buy Ikea cabinet boxes and add your own custom drawer fronts and doors. Ikea makes a good quality cabinet." We considered this, however, I just don't like how industrial it all looks internally. So, I wondered if replacing these drawers with wood ones could work. The first choice was to buy RTA from Conestoga, Barker or etc. I guess I'll just stick with plan "A".
