Honey Bee foundation (worker and drone)

cults3d

These designs form the basis for a queen-rearing nucleus, with workers and drones serving as foundation members. The worker foundation measures 5mm in diameter, while the drone foundation is 7mm wide. Pre-made sheets of foundation without frames are available, allowing users to replicate them to create larger frame sizes. Three wax foundation frame designs have been provided: one features a four-piece design that can be pushed together, requiring custom-cut wax foundation; two other designs consist of half-frames (simply print two for a complete frame) that necessitate squeezing wax foundation between the halves. One of these squeeze-together frames employs small clips to secure the pieces in place, whereas the other relies on the adhesive properties of the wax itself to hold the parts together.
