For the second set of dimensions I looked into ways to reduce the width of the whole worm farm. Folding over the outside edges and removing the side handles so that the tray doesn't need as much of a ring to sit on. As well, tapering the inside of the ring itself will add friction and stop the bin from falling down. All of these alterations takes away roughly 10cm overall which helps to put the farm within the size available in the bench model
In regards to the dimensions of a 4 person worm bin everything is fine. This design will work in a stock standard kitchen bench. The reason I stopped the dimensions for the final drawing however is I felt the need to measure the inside of the bench model again. Sadly the bench itself is not up to normal dimensions as stated in the anthropometrics resource provided by Massey.
The main problem as to the dimension of the bench is that the height of the overall bench is shorter than it should be and the height of the skirting around the base is too high. It will be too difficult to edit the bench and keep it looking presentable over making a new bench for my own project.
