With the spirit of going green, we finally finish our tumbler composting bin...
It's all started when I saw home made composting bin at Youtube. It even comes with a diagram... After a long thought we decided that we want to try it.
I got the plastic barrel free from local food processor in Waukesha. Since we don't have most of the tools needed, like the saw drill, power tool, it cost us almost $150 to get the supplies and the tools. And since none of us are very handy, we are really working on it slowly.
It took us about 4 weekend to work on it. Perhaps, the most interesting part is the process itself. Both of us have engineering background. You know how engineer think? Very logical but may not be always practical.
Here's what it looks from the inside...
The kids likes to turn it... so I got an extra happy helper turning the compost. Will the bin helps turn to a compost faster? Hm.. will see...

Now that you've had some time to use this design, how would you change it to make it better, more robust?
