If you're interested in a composting activity and would like to enjoy the many benefits to it, then you might as well consider hand-picking your very own Compost Bin Plans. But if you're also into the crafty side, and is willing to make one of your own instead of purchasing those commercially-made bins, then you might as well create your own Homemade Compost Bin. In general, not only is building your own compost bin plans cheaper, it's also going to be a noteworthy piece that you yourself made. It can be a nice, little achievement.
Keep things tidy indoors or outdoors by just using recycling compostbins. Bins are made to help store organic scraps. Your kitchen scraps and yard wastes, when kept inside a bin, will undergo through a natural process of transforming decomposing materials into a nutrient-rich compost. This compost end-result can then be used as a natural fertilizer later on. You can have this applied instantly, especially on your plants and soil (can be used as a soil amendment).
Take note that the compost materials should always be kept moist and should also be able to store in some heat, so consider the size of your homemade bin with these few requirements (so that the decomposition process takes place smoothly).
Now there are also four cheap and easy ways that you can decide to go through with when it comes to making a compost bin. You can either choose to do go with bins that are made out of wires, some wire and posts, concrete blocks, and stacked lumber.
Wires - form a circle-shaped wire bin, and have the ends fastened together. When building a compost bin, the size will depend on how much raw materials you're planning on decomposing. The width of the wire can also depend on your preference. You can use some plastic material that can be used as a make-shift lid/cover.
Wires and Posts - The construction process for this one is made with the use of two steel T-posts (should be at least 7 inches long). You can push these posts on the ground (at least 4 feet away from each other), followed by some wire attachment. You can finish the project by joining one end of the wire panel on to the post. Do the same on the other side (can be further secured with more wires).
Concrete Blocks - these are not as cheap but the material lasts long. So make this as an investment. Other than that, you can make your own compost bin out of these materials only. You can make walls for your bin by stacking the blocks vertically.
Stacked Lumber - you can also use wood to make into a bin. You can build a square type, with some rod-support (the rods will help keep the bin intact). This will look like a wooden box.
You can choose to follow these easy Compost Bin Plans or just purchase one. But there are simply a lot more Homemade Compost Bin types that you can make at home, besides the mentioned materials. You can even consider using a recycled trash can with a lid, as a make-shift bin. You'll only need to drill holes on it to make way for ventilation and drainage holes, and you're all set.
