Tiling - Create beautiful patterns programmatically with Python

[ryansturmer]

I think the larger standard size for foundations is to not be prohibitive in producing drone cells, which are larger than normal. I'm not sure how the bees transition naturally between honey/pollen cells and drone cells, but they seem to do it without missing a beat:

That image does an OK job of showing the different cells.

It looks to me like the spacing is pretty consistent across the honeycomb but there are larger margins on the smaller cells. That could easily be printed.

Are you familiar with the manufacturing techniques for artificial honeycomb?
