Here's what I wrote on a different social media site:
Longtime friends and family members may remember the time when I built a worm bin, in grad school. I gave away that worm bin when I graduated and moved to Texas, and have regretted that decision ever since. A couple years ago I got the hardware to build another one, and I finally completed it today. Here's a photo of one of the most important steps in building a worm bin, testing it out to see if it works. Bad news, folks - this one doesn't seem to work correctly! No matter how hard I try, some appendages stick out!

...But on this site, you should get the version with even more pictures, because, well, why not? Because we can.

I just couldn't wedge my legs in there.

I also thought that S had gone off to swim, so I had to document everything with selfies. It was only after I put the worms in that I discovered that he'd actually just passed out for a nap.



Full of worms!

Looking great in its new home:

The next project is now out on the front porch: the chairs, to finish for once and for all!

I do feel as though I know a whole lot more about sanding now, which gives me more confidence that I can actually see this next project through to the finish line. It may take me another month or two to land this one, but that's another thing I'm more familiar with by now.
