I used a 'fruit press' last year with good success (got it off freecycle brand new).
Put them in a straining bag, which kept the wax in, then used the press, topping up bag as I went along, then put the strained honey in a bucket to settle..............nice compressed wax for melting down and most of the honey captured.
