After my first dovetail, i bought a jig for my router

Same here! The wood is thick and really wet right from the hardware store. I cut the joinery using panel saws because the teeth of my back saws were too fine. It came out pretty good, even if it's utilitarian.

no I mean the rolling compost bins in general. I only ever experienced piles. Obviously its easier to mix but im just sorta wondering how convenient it feels. assuming you did piles at some point of course. if not then it may be hard to relate.

That makes sense. Im in a condo though and I have contemplated them at times. Granted atm I can't get one but hopefully the future opens up options for me. One of the things though is im not sure what I would do with it if it worked out given at best I just have a few potted plants.

May want to sit it on some gravel or concrete then a standard 24 is not graded for constant ground exposure it's going to rot quicker. You need something beefier like a 66 if setting in dirt.

At least that's going from memory

Did you add pressure treat sealer to the cut ends? If not, I'd recommend doing so as it'll add quite a few years of life to it.
