Cubic-octahedral honeycomb honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cube, truncated octahedron cells, in a triangular antiprism vertex figure. It has a Coxeter diagram . It contains an H2 subgroup tetrahexagonal tiling alternating square and hexagonal faces, with Coxeter diagram or half symmetry : A radial subgroup symmetry, index 6, of this honeycomb can be constructed with [(4,3,4,3)], , represented by a trigonal trapezohedron fundamental domain, and Coxeter diagram . This lower symmetry can be extended by restoring one mirror as . The truncated cubic-octahedral honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from truncated octahedron, truncated cube, rhombicuboctahedron, truncated cuboctahedron cells,
Wax foundation movement toward foundationless beekeeping by hobbyist for various reasons. Some of which are listed below: A frame has to be wired so that the wax foundation could be inserted into it. The foundation is then soldered with the wire by using a spur embedder or electric current. Also extant are wax foundations with embedded wire that only need to be inserted into the frame. Wax foundations are made in various sizes, depending on the frame they will be inserted into. If needed, roller knife is used to cut wax foundations. Wax foundation Wax foundation or honeycomb base is a plate
