I just copied what was shown here:
I used bur comb found in the brood box and mashed 50 cent piece sized into the centre of the frame on both sides.
My thinking is that since bees are a bit OCD, they’ll redistribute around the mashed up bur comb and end up working that area first, then work towards the edges.
I too had some concern with the alignment and gaps, but within a month, my ladies had waxed and drawn out the comb and were filling.
Welcome and all the best. We look forward to what you will report back.
Regards,
Fred
