What's the actual way to get honeycomb in minecraft?

once you've got three combs, craft a beehive (planks top and bottom, combs across the middle) and set it up near flowers at home. way less walking than hunting nests. if you'd rather move the wild nest itself, a silk touch tool picks it up with the bees still inside. and later on a dispenser with shears in it will harvest for you.

shears on a nest that's actually full, so honey dripping down the front and the block looking gorged. three combs per go. stick a campfire a block or two underneath first. the smoke keeps them calm; without it the whole hive comes out after you. and shears specifically, a pickaxe just wrecks the nest.
