Anyone try one of those rotating compost drums?

2. We made one out of patio blocks for the floor, regular cement blocks for the walls,

and it's 4x8 and 4-5 blocks high

It could be sized depending on the space you have. Most of our kitchen scraps of meat, etc goes to the birds. Crows love it.

All the garden waste and house waste except meat gets tossed in. At the end of a year, we have about 2-3 feet of nice black dirt in the bottom.

We don't turn it and don't allow neighbors to put their grass clippings put them in there because we have to know there are no pesticides in it.
