Propose, Collaborate, Develop
The following thread exists to help coordinate collaboration on developing an Open Source Langstroth beehive design.
We have a community-started version here feel free to iterate on it, but introduce yourself and share you skills below first so we can build a team!
Langstroth Beehives are a popular hive style not currently offered by the Open Source Beehives project. There is an obvious demand for this, due to the number of requests we have received!
We are a small, busy team, so this thread aims to bring together collaborators interesting in designing a Langstroth beehive. We encourage collaborators to build off of the work of our project, using similar connectors and design aesthetic developed in our Colorado Top Bar and Barcelona Warré designs. We will support these efforts in any way we can, by promoting and advising on the process.
Any designs developed within this community must be openly licensed - meaning that the designs can be downloaded, improved, and shared by anybody without limitation. They should ultimately be in digital form so they can be downloaded and fabricated easily.
Please introduce yourselves below to get the ball rolling!

While I have no wood working or design experience I'm grateful to have found this forum. I applaud everyone's efforts. I tend to agree that are popular that needs an open source design. I'll contribute what I can to design ideas. Thanks.
