However, after my frustration, I heartily recommend nailing a 1" strip of
unwired wax foundation into the wedge bar. Wire your frame like you normally
would, insert the 1" strip (I cut mine with a pizza cutter using a 1" board
for a guide) into the wedge bar and allow the bees to draw out the rest of the
frame.
If you intend to use acids for the control of varroa you might like to
'wire' with nylon fishing line rather than with metal.
