I had to create a wormery for a lifestyle project unit that I took, as part of my degree. I didnt want to buy one because they are quite expensive for a student! This one costs around £15 if you already have the tools!
My design is a Frankenstein version of various designs that I have seen on the internet, and works on the idea of tiered boxes (rather than just a box). This makes it easier to access the worm waste.
I used Ikea stacking boxes and therefore, this instructable will be centred around using the same; however, similar boxes could be used!
I thought that it was quite easy to build, and I hope that it works for you too! Good luck!

I'm located between 2 Ikeas.
My only problem is which one I can get to fastest.
