They have round 8 oz plastic, square 16 oz wooden, and 12 oz plastic cassettes. You can get a catalog from them. Another supplier for the first two would be Walter Kelly Co. 3107 Elizabethtown Rd. PO Box 240, Clarkson, KY 42726-0240 USA 800-233-2899 (A free call in the US; I don't know if it is for you) Personally I have abandoned all section comb production, and do not even use comb honey foundation. I place empty frames between two good frames of comb, and the bees make beautiful frames of comb honey, which I cut and place into wide-mouth jars. Fill the rest with liquid honey, and you have a lovely pack, which sells well, at least in this area.
