Just don't get a Compost Tumbler - worthless hunk of money!

Isn't that the truth! I still use mine to make a mix of several
different composts to create a product for making aerobic compost tea.
I some times add some fungal foods to get the mycelium actively
growing. In other words it's a high priced mixer that could be
replaced with a $20USD recycled plastic barrel.
I use it to "store" composting materials - add a load of grass clippings or
two and get a mix half rotted down - I'll spread that to finish the job on
the garden. When it rusts out, out it goes.
I wonder if it my climate - I am in the north, but I have friends in the
south that get decent results if the entire load is chopped fine.
