I don't know the measurements, but I've gotten some at Lowes. They are
concrete, More pyramid than cube shaped, and there is a place for a 4 by 4 to
drop in. No holes for securing, but the weight should keep it stable.

You want to support it well when you remove and replace the posts to prevent
the leverage of the deck from pulling your rim away from the building.

They certainly do. They are somewhat conical sloping from the wider base to the
top. There is a depression in the top and the ones I have seen also have
channels in them at the top presumably to drain water away.
Hope this is helpful.

I could do that. But then what about adding the worms? Do they like beer
too?
I remember a neighbor used to have loud parties like that, slugs, grubs,
beer, noisy lot.
But worms won't go for the beer?

Al, the ones that I used had 4 screws that you fastened the cleat to the
post. There are 4 corners that stick down about an inch with a point at each
end. This just sits on the concrete slab, block etc. The fact that it held
the 4x4s above theconcrete there is no wicking. Also there is a large c

Yes, as they are beginning to get rotten on the bottom. Does this cleat

I'm not too concerned with movement

Are you replacing the 4x4s? If so they make a nice metal cleat that you
screw to the bottom and it sits on the block. I used them on my back porch
roof supports and have not had any problem in over 30 years.

You can buy a steel foot that has a spike on the middle bottom about a foot
long that will fit a 4 by 4.

So why don't you instead of using what you want... Use a small tuna fish can
or something like it and pour some cheap beer into it. That being no pet of
your own in the yard. The grubs and slugs love it and get in it and die!!
Geno
will either the surface or deep type of nematode hurt worms?
I wish to use them to bother the grubs but wouldn't want to harm the
worms.

Hi,
Glad to see the topic of raising worms come up. I purchased a
Vermicomposter and it basically is a set of stackable tubs with a grid in
the bottom. You put the worms in a bedding to get them established on the
second tray. The bottom tray is to collect any liquids.After the worms

That is good news but destroys your worm farm project. :-)
