be nailed in position and will hold the shape when dry.

Yes that would be good, but I have been hammering away at a number of
researchers and a number of research institutions, but they all seem to
be unprepared to even consider more or new research.

At first sight, you might think so, but I think that the cell size that
a bee was raised in has an influence on the cell size that it will draw
when it does not have a template.
