Just don't think you're being clever by using unwired in deeps like I did - bought a load of it in my last bulk from maisemore and loads of it's collapsed in the hive - do as Emyr sayswired foundation in the deeps, unwired in the shallows. The belief that you need to have wired foundation in the shallows if you are mechanically extracting is a myth, many of my shallow frames have unwired thin foundation (why pay extra for the 'normal' stuff) and not one has blown thus far
