A More Sustainable Adventure

Compost Tumbler – A-Frame Base – DIY super sturdy, wheelbarrow optimized. Free detailed plans.

By letter2self on December 25, 2024



Build a strong, stable A Frame base that is wheelbarrow friendly. Not the typically wobbly “T-post” tumbler or bin. FREE 16-page Plans & Tutorial download!

Plans, details and materials list at https://UnchartedDIY.com/compost-tumbler/
A new video showing how to build a Shaker Table for sorting this compost (and it does so much more) is here https://youtu.be/2pp0k23Ziyw

Simple to follow instructions for accommodating less-than-straight wood without complex math and measurements.

In this video:
What Makes this Design Different?: 00:00
Building the A-frame Base 00:51
Preparing the Barrel: 8:29
Central Air Shaft and Final Assembly: 12:52

Other than the poly barrel, all parts can be found at the hardware store. The barrel can be ordered at hardware stores, but most don’t stock them. I bought a food-grade barrel used for mine.
