Using the Solar Cone Composter
You'll need a shovel to dig a hole about two feet deep, in order to bury the bottom section of the composter. The top section attaches to the bottom with metal screws. It's easiest to assemble with a power screwdriver, but you can do it with a normal one with a bit more effort.
After a year or two, when the compost bin fills up, you simply unscrew the top section and remove it, pull out the basket from the ground, and distribute the rich compost that you've made. You'll want to stop adding new material during the last couple of weeks before you empty it, so that you won't have half decomposed scraps mixed with your finished compost.
The compost bin should be placed in a location that gets a decent amount of direct sunlight, because heat from the sun helps break down the materials inside.
