Queen cell cutout on plastic foundation for a split
« on: March 01, 2019, 07:10:48 pm »
This isn't a brag or a how to....it's just how I did it while attempting to solve my plastic foundation dilemma with cutting out queen cells. It was an experiment (which I like to do) which worked. It's an option.

I've been cutting out queen cells from Plastic Foundation for a few years now.
I've had very good results doing it.
The cells location is key.
