We will never oversell you.  This is everything you need to get a ZEST hive underway.  You will obviously need to get the ZEST hive materials from a builders merchants, but we include the instructions and a list to take to them.  Approximately materials should cost £150 UK pounds new.    Use as much stuff in your home as you can.  My father did, much to my mothers dismay, but we can be Beekeepers who think smartly about not only the bees but also the tools we buy to take care of them.   
 
You can also find materials on Facebook Marketplace, the materials required for the ZEST hive can often be found being given away.
