This 3D printed pollen trap for top bar hives allows quick conversion from "pollen collecting mode" to "free access open" with the flip of a lever.  Size and shape of the bee openings in the pollen stripping may be changed easily, by replacing the gate. Alternative gate designs will be developed in the near future with the help of you my customers.

 Mason jars or plastic bags collect the pollen.

The pollen trap covers an opening size of 1 3/8" by 5 3/4" opening.  My top bar hive has 3 3/4 inch holes which this trap covers.
