Mini Wooden Portable Compost Bin

Step 3 Materials

What do we need to make our mini compost bin?

• 4 pieces of wood that are 4.5 by 1' Thickness is not necessarily an issue, but if you were wondering, I had 3/4in thickness.
• 8 Nails that are long enough to go through about 1.5 pieces of your wood. I used very thin ones, sorry I do not know their names, I found them in my workshop.
• Hammer
• Extra pieces of wood are optional if you want to build a cover.
• Different types of waste products which I will talk about in the next step.

Im curious, what type of wood did you use? I used pine in mine but then someone told me that the type of wood we use in the container will affect the acidity of the compost. Do you know something about that? Which wood would be better to use?
