Dear Experienced Hobbyist,
   IF YOU HAD IT TO DO OVER, would you invest in wood or plastic frames?
What about other plastic parts such as tops and bottom boards?  Do you
still embed wire in wax foundation?  Whatever, the case - I would welcome
your opinions about what hive equipment you use and why.

   Personally, all I learned about Plastic frames last year was Don't Buy
the super cheap no-name ones - the tops are too thin and where the bees
drew out only one side the whole frame is warped.  My Pierco frames were
just fine except for one case of wild comb.

   Thanks.
