Is there any way that I could use a simple trashcan for a compost bin?

I can't really afford paying a lot of money for a compost bin thing, and
I don't want an ugly compost pile.

Is there anything that I can do to "modify" a trash can with a locking
lid to compost beautifully?

Perforate the can and mount it on an axle between 2 posts so that you
can tumble it end for end. You may need to reinforce the can where the
axle penetrates. Old skilsaw blades pop riveted in place would make
good reinforcement.

A little small for what I compost but it would work
