Thanks for the suggestions about product ideas(sorry about the
crossposting - first time I've posted to a newsgroup). One possible idea is
an improved rotating
composter - those that are availible seem to have limited capacity and only
handle one load at a time - appriciate any thoughts.

There was a piece about this on Gardeners' Question Time today where they
said it wasn't a very good option. You can hear it on the BBC radio 4
website or catch the repeat on Wednesday

However, unless I'm mistaken they experimented last year on Gardeners'
World with various forms of composting and the tumbler was the fastest.

I know of one Urgler who used his rotating composter to mix his
potting compost. That right, Charlie?

No, you're right - the rotating barrel came out top. Trouble is, as has
been mentioned, the capacity is too small for 'real' gardeners :0)) ,
and at £50, they're too dear.
