Does anyone use the all plastic one piece frames? looks like they would hold up alot better than wood.
And would they work for the brood chamber?

I just bought 2000 Mann Lake PF120s.  They're 4.95mm and the bees are drawing them beautifully.

I also have wax dipped PermaComb (which is fully drawn plastic, instead of foundation) and some Honey Super Cell which is also fully drawn plastic.  But it's the cell size I like about all of these. :)
