Or you just dropp it all in the bucket and that dry it ??? but that will stink and it will be be full of liquid… how can one defecate on that everything will fly up! xDDD … This lady is talking about drying off the feces and covering with a layer of saw dust. but how to separate the urine first ?
I`ve seen another …
I`ve seen another video where this lady is talking about heating or drying the manure inside the bucket or something like that i didnt understood her well english is not my native ^^. But anyway as i understood in order to make it odourless and to turn it into compost, it needs to be dry and without urine. So how can one separate the urine and feces when you gotta do it ^_^ ?
Nice prototype! I …
Nice prototype! I saw it last week and
was inspired (and out of need) to build one. I solved one problem of having to disconnect and lift the top bucket.
The top bucket is actually a smaller diameter, leaving an air space between the top and lower bucket, and, is attatched to the top of the enclosed box lid, which is on hinges.
It only needed to drop below the lower bucket by about 3/4″.
I’ve sealed the seat lid, seat, and box lid with gasket.
I’ll vent mine out the side.
Thanks, eh!
Sp,e good ideas …
Sp,e good ideas here. You do any more on this?
The shop vacs have that flexible hose attach via a screw on fitting. Seems to me that that would work. Of course, the frame would have to be open in the front and the vent attached there.
Then, for hauling the bucket around, you’d need a a cap with the same attachment method.
Well, that’s my take. I’d be curious to see what you came up with.
The top wood cover …
The top wood cover unscrews and allows the bucket rim interface and top plate to pull up and away from the lower bucket. The top can be extracted in a minute or so with a cordless drill. The seal on top of the lower bucket is not glued to the lower bucket. And yes, the vent pipe may need some dismantling in the scheme of things. Remember that this composter is just a prototype. Longer term usage will not doubt provide better insights on how to cycle through to a new bucket.
I like your design, …
I like your design, but do not understand how you remove the bucket with the top bucket with vent down into it..
Great work Jeff! …
Great work Jeff! I’d hate to have the room on the other side of that vent pipe! 73.
