It is specifically made for the beekeeping industry.  It has to be very precise.

They are not really that expensive. I see your from Alexandria, Va.  I love it there! So much history!

Beebad, just courious, why the focus on metal.  There are plastic QE, they can be cut and glued to any shape.
I have been around bees a long time, since birth.  I am a hobbyist so my answers often reflect this fact.  I concentrate on genetics, raise my own queens by wet graft, nicot, with natural or II breeding.  I do not sell queens, I will give queens  for free but no shipping.
