Title: Kelley's Drop In Foundation w/out Pins
Post by: beek4018 on April 22, 2010, 10:53:55 AM
Just curious to know if anybody has used the new top loading Kelley's frames without support pins for the foundation.

I'm fast approaching the time when I need to add my second brood super, and I have the box, frames, and foundation, but am waiting on pins. 

They should arrive in time, but if they don't can I go ahead without them?  Are there any good workarounds to keep the foundation anchored until they draw it out?

Thanks.

You can always melt bee's wax  on them to keep them up there.
That is what I had to do with some of my frames that I had gotten but they wasn't from Kelly's.
