I produce comb honey every year and up until a couple of years ago I always
used a full piece of foundation.  However a couple of years ago it was very
hot (yes it sometimes get hot in Scotland even up to 25 deg!!!!)  and the
foundation melted causing a terrible mess.  I noticed that Kent thought
foundation was cheap but it is not cheap when it is ruined.  Now I use
strips of foundation which works 90% as well as full sheets.  In fact I now
just use strips of wax which are made by pouring wax over a sheet of glass.
