I started out using wired beeswax foundation 30 years ago and later switched to Duragilt, always using wedged top bar frames. This year I'm going to try Plasticell in wooden frames. My question is this: Do I need to use wedged top bar frames, or will Plasticell bend and snap into a grooved top bar frame? It would save a lot of time and labor if it will.

Thanks in advance for your advice...

I've been using Duragilt foundation for 25 years in wedged top bar/slotted bottom bar frames with no breakage in the extractor. For clarificaton, I use a 20 frame radial extractor. However, I've heard good things about Plasticell and I'm eager to try it.
