Should I miter the ends of the sides, or would a butt joint be
adequate? ?Should I use steel corner reinforcements? ?Should I put
the hardware cloth on the outside of the frame or on the inside?

Why go to all that trouble? Just have a pile surrounded by chicken
wire fence with one end that can be opened, use shovel occasionally to
mix.

this works fine, the tumblers are overkill if you ask me

Wow! Did you actually try to read the post?
