    THe operator is making end bars for extraction super frames, for a standard Langsworth style hive.They're not long enough for deep supers.
    The parts are the two ends of a frame. The top bar and split bottom bar will be nailed into the notches on the end bars.
    A sheet of wax foundation will go into the frame and wires, or clips will hold it in. Drilling holes in the end bars is the next step.
    He is doing it on some type of a multi blade saw. The top and bottom notches are plowed with a dado, or shaper.

    Here is an image I found of an upside down brood frame that makes the parts being manufactured a little more clear. Below that is a plan for a frame.

    No, I do not speak the language. I ran some words through google translator. Was really trying to figure out some specs of the arbor or the machine.

    Yes that is exactly what they are making. I have dozens of them in my be hives.

    Or a multi-bladed table saw.
    They are using a power feeder and a gang saw to cut three at a time from larger pieces of material that have been milled to fit the top bar and bottom bar for a frame to hold honeycob.

    I think the software needs a certain total length of posts depending on the size of individual posts before it goes to additional pages. Since most of the posts thus far have been one liners It doesn't need a second page yet.
