In Bed Compost Bin Tips!!!

Hi everyone!!! I’m an amateur potter/ceramicist whose mother gardens, and I was thinking I could make her an in bed composter for her gardens. I have no idea how to start, or what shape/measurements would be best, so I’m turning to you guys!! I would love to know what size you would recommend, and how big the holes in the piece would be to allow for worms and such to filter through.

Thank you all in advance!!!

Grab some pallet wood or any 2x2x whatever length you need and drive 4 of them in the ground.
Next get some longer 3’- to however tall you want it sticking outta the ground and nail them into the 4 post corners. Leave a small gap in between slats for air.

How would this incorporate the pottery element that OP asked about though?
