I have an established 5 frame nuc that needs to move into a full deep.  I have new duraglit frames set up (probably the last foundation I am going to buy) and frames with starter strips.  What order should I set up the 10 framer?  I assume I'll have to give them the foundation, no?

set the nuke frames in the middle together, then place the frames of your choice on the outside of those.

It is better to keep ones mouth shut and be thought of as a fool than to open ones mouth and in so doing remove all doubt.

You mean I could use the starter strips on both sides of the nuc frames?

bailey

why not? as they need room they will expand sideways to the next frame, then the next then the next.
keep the frames tight together in the hive and it should go well.
