hey guys, my mother in law sent me this idea on a youtube link...i watched it once and ran outside to make it lol... its a plastic 55 gallon drum with a wooden lid i made. i used screws above and below the lid to anchor it in place, and i toe nailed some screw through it...the pole going through it is an old rake handle and i just used an old hinge for the door with a hook and eye to keep it shut...some 2x4's with a 45 cut in the bottom to smash them in the ground. and a 1" hole saw drilled through the tops so it can spin...theres some air holes in the bottom and im going to put some 3" lag bolts and random screws in it to break up the food as is spins...let me know what you guys think...

Sweet man. I'm gonna make one soon as I start my outdoor garden. So much b etter than throwing perfectly good scraps away.
