What is the purpose of the wiring both sides of the foundation for the
additional support?  I thought the purpose of wiring foundation was just to
add additional strenght to the comb during extraction.  I'm new at bee
keeping and rather clumsy at wiring.  I am having a difficult time
determing if the wire is embedded or not.  I use an electric wire embedder
which apprears to partially embed  the wire.  Is this ok?
