As stated before (299), the frame that we use is similar in size and shape to the Quinliy hanging frame, a little longer and a little deeper than the regular Langstroth frame, fig. 6S. The exact size of these frames is given in diagram, fig. 72. 323. All the parts of the mo-^'able frames should be cut cint by circular saws, and the measurement should be exact, so that the frames when nailed together may be square. If ^â This invention should not be confused with that of comb-founda- tion, made a few years later by the same distinguished Apiarist. (677).
