wheelie bin worm farm

I'm thinking about building a wheelie bin worm farm, anyone got one or ever built one?

 

It's basically a bin with a tap, false bottom, holes for aeration and a porthole for easy collection of castings.

 

 You can buy them for >$400, but I'm more inclined to repurpose a clean, second hand bin if I can.

The bins are cheap enough (ask your local council).

This guy converted a 240L bin into a worm farm, for around $50:

 

And a "continuos flow" DIY design:
