Cut the brood comb to shape then staple the foundation wires to the top bar. The bees will attach the comb to the bar more firmly as they settle
another way to attach foundation or foundation starter strip is to cut a slot along the bar, insert the foundation and then nip the open end up with a nail or screw.
Only need an inch or so of foundation for a starter strip.
