ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved frame section which is adapted to be mounted in a beehive in abutting relationship with a plurality of similar frame sections for making round comb honey. A plur- ality of circular openings are formed by cylindrical walls in each of the frame sections. A plurality of cylindrically shaped, horizontally extending chambers or "rounds" are formed by abut- ting pairs of the cylindrical walls of adjacent frame sections. The cylindrical frame walls each have a pair of arcuate zones of reduced axial lengths with respect to a second pair of inter- vening arcuate zones of greater axial lengths. The smaller axial length zones form a series of top and bottom openings along the frames when assembled, to provide access openings for the bees to the interior chambers. A ring is telescopically seated within each of the frame openings to form the sidewall of a container for the formed combs. The ring has two pairs of inter- vening, diametrically opposed arcuate zones of shorter and longer axial lengths which are adapted to coincide with the correspond- ing shorter and longer axial length zones of the cylindrical frame wall. Projections are formed on the ends of each of the cylindrical wall zones of greater axial length adjacent the intervening wall zones of shorter axial lengths to provide a seat for the ring. One of the frame wall zones of the pair which have the greater axial lengths has a greater arcuate length than the other wall zones of that pair whereby the intervening wall zones are not diametrically opposite of each other, thereby preventing the insert ring from being installed incorrectly. The rings and frame are formed of contrasting colors to provide a visual check as to the placement of a ring in each of the frame openings.
