A note- if the bin doesn’t have holes for oxygen to pass through you may want to consider drilling a few on the side. It’s counterintuitive but compost needs to breathe to successfully decompose and it will actually help it to not smell
I like wind chimes but in one of your gardening videos they made this odd sound (kind of a droning hum) and I had to mute the video for a bit, lol. Probably just a me thing, lol. That said, I am grateful for your silencing them in this video :) .
Piano hinge would be a good idea. Plastic drums are made from the same thing they make playgrounds out of. Very UV resistant and they retain their shape in harsh conditions. I think it’s called HDPE. Tough stuff
My problem is that the door on mine warped as soon as I cut it out. It has a tighter curve than the drum. No problem with it warping the on the hinge side.
As someone who knows nothing about gardening or composting, I would have thought some rain getting in the barrel would be good to help with breaking it down into compost; and if there was a ton of water, like too much, then that could just get dumped out of the door
I would love to build a garden but I don't have a private back yard and as for my front yard, I can't even plant flowers, because the squirrels dig them up to bury their nuts.
You schould name all the quail & jus find different color rubber bands or something around there ankles to tell them apart. You could even have ppl send in suggestions 4 names. I think that would be really fun. You'll have 2 keep a color chart 2 keep track of who's who..
Yes it did but not terribly. The latch I chose does a pretty good job of keeping it in place. I can still tumble the bin without compost falling out. I think you'd have to frame the door with wood or something else that doesn't warp from heat to keep it from happening.
My brain just hears 'glycerin' and 'nitrogen' and was like, I swear that's an explosive. But I guess this wouldn't actually make Nitroglycerin due to all the impurities of everything else in compost. 😋

I wanna keep watching but my sensory issues are going nuts with your chimes! I’m very sensitive to high pitch noises :( next time could you take them down when trying to film a video outside when you know it’s a windy day? Thanks 😊 ❤
Best statment of the whole video "My mom is so proud of me" The smile after was priceless. ❤❤❤
Iv been watching this family from day one there just amazing family and summer ❤❤

I love these types of vlogs, especially exited to see the fish pond expansion
Priscilla I enjoy listening to the wind chimes also😊
Awesome idea Asa, well done 👍
I'm sure your helping a lot of people who've wanted to do this.. 😊
Love the enthusiasm Asa, and your ideas are so helpful to other budding gardeners too. Blessings.
I love the chimes. But I'm not the one trying to think
This channel is full of helpful hints. Love it ❤
Those noise Wind Chimes would drive me nuts!!
Had pause.. " I'm not a pole kinda girl" had me in 😂😂😂
Very impressive! I’m so excited! Watching with popcorn to see how things turn out. 😉😎
What a neat idea... Those are good to make raised flower beds as well Cut long and put some legs on.. Can spray paint the outside if desired lol
Gotta say this was really neat. One comment though - you should be wearing safety glasses doing that stuff! 😉
Asa and Isaiah struggling to get the pipe through the hole when they have a large door they could have opened up to guide it through!😂

If you wash the egg shells and let them dry out you can put thwm in the blender and mix it with your oyster shells for the quails calcium.
if you can hang a small bucket under because liquid compost it excellent for indoor plants aswell
Best one I've seen yet! Thank you👍
Gahh lee… those wind chimes, I still hear them in my ears…. I watch all your other videos though….❤
You’re an amazing family❤
Well done Asa!!!,
Oh Asa I was soo Nervous when Isaiah told you to push that pole through, I thought you was gone get him in the Eye😬😮
Is this the modern day version of this old house!! Lol. U can see that you definitely enjoy doing this stuff but I'm sure Cilla jus loves it!! Lol
I enjoy the chimes but if I was in your position I would be way overstimulated. Haha
Try having neighbors on all 4 sides with big chimes, one of them ties a ribbon around them to stop the noise when it gets too windy, whew !!!
The chimes are annoying...imagine how your neighbors feel 😂
Ya know Asa, the fish are gonna start resenting the birds. Then Sir, you will have a civil war in the backyard. It wont be pretty 😂😂😂😂
Very educational. I think it might’ve been liquid glucose not glycerin, because glycerin is used to make soap. I don’t think it’s edible.
I was thinking the same exact thing!
The barrel was labeled food grade glycerin. Definitely edible but very sweet
The drum doesn't look to be completely circular so you did a pretty good job finding center
One suggestion is you might rig up a crank or handle to turn the compost bin
Awesome, Asa! ❤
I just had this idea and looked it up to see if there was a video of it.
If you would have used a piano hinge on door, it would help keep the door from warping in the heat. Very good composter.

you know what I am proud of you too
FYI don’t reach in to taste sugar now , since you dumped the dirt in !!😂
Or that could be a dare for Isaiah!!!
When you stopped the chimes, my brain went ahhhhhhhhh. They are alot. I can understand one, but that many...it's not a great noise!
Cool 👍👍👍

How well has it been holding up and doing at composting?
Great video

You could have opened the lid to fix the rod lol!
Just curious, did your hinged lid warp in the sun? Mine did and Im desperately looking for a solution LOL

How tall are your A-frame pieces?
Asa, you should make a rain catchment system for rain water for the plants…
💋🧚🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
That’s what the other two drums I got from Bella’s Barrels are for 😉
@@moremaass -Yeah, can’t wait to see it! 💋🧚🏻♀️
To brace it on the back , you should cross brace it by that , you should be making an x
Put a bungee cord around the wind chimes while filming or when it bothers you.
Nice job!!!
Thanks!
What do you call the metal pieces that the rod went through and can I pickup at my local hardware store?
Wall flange for pipe
Awesome info ty
You prepping? Seems like it. I sure am.
My brain just hears 'glycerin' and 'nitrogen' and was like, I swear that's an explosive. But I guess this wouldn't actually make Nitroglycerin due to all the impurities of everything else in compost. 😋
❤❤❤good video
Rivets work wll too.

I honestly couldn't concentrate either lol
Am i the only one that is wanting to let him know the right side is flipped around 😆
Welcome to Asas current ADHD fixation. Where he and us viewers can hyper fixate together.
Hahaha exactly. It’s perfect. I love what he did with this channel!
@@heatherfahsbender6583I do too.
lol Cilia in the background
Need air holes and no poop ever
Hello beautiful Maass family ❤️ 😘
He only had to move the board to the other side. Not the brightest
Isiaih I dare you to do the hottest chip changellenge for us, that would be great!

Hello
hi
You shouldn’t put onions or citrus in a compost
Interesting! Why is that? I know you’re not supposed to put meat in the compost bin.
You can absolutely compost both of them. Onions may deter worms but in a tumbler there are no worms. Both citrus and onions will compost just fine
Cilla 🫣😅🤣💃🏻 I literally chuckled when Isaiah was helping 😅
