New Wormbin

I started making a 2nd worm bin. The first one was made from blue recycling boxes, the inner one being about 20 litres in volume. It was working out quite well after some initial fruit fly problems, which appeared to solve itself once the worms really started churning the material. Pretty soon I had a full bin of healthy worms, but there was one problem: it wasn't processing the food scraps fast enough. A lot of fruit and vegetables are consumed in our household (even when I was living by myself throughout the month of August), and the amount of waste plant matter far exceeded the amount being consumed by the worms. Therefore I decided to start a second, considerably larger bin:

It's hard to tell without a shot of the previous bin, but the new ones are about 20 gallons (vs 20 litres). I recruited Robin and Gabe to help during the construction process:
