Detailed Description The Uncapping Plane is a practical stainless steel tool designed to help beekeepers remove wax cappings from frames during honey harvesting. Its efficient manual design allows you to draw the plane across the frame surface, lifting cappings as you pull—an approach many beekeepers prefer for its simplicity and control. Measuring 3 inches wide, this uncapping plane is sized specifically for medium frames. Because of its narrow design, users make multiple passes on each side of the frame to fully remove the wax cappings. This makes it a helpful tool for controlled uncapping, especially when working through smaller sections at a time. The uncapping plane is frequently used alongside other harvesting tools such as uncapping forks and knives, offering a versatile and approachable option for both new and experienced beekeepers.
