Questions & Answers

With this model, which does not have the 2-D image, can it be a monotonous task to continually drill down to the details This mechanism consists of two crooks that are linked together How much does the model cost?

It is unclear to me what the 2- is A lot has been said about this crank, but my only feedback is that it works very well, is lightweight and turns the compost very I'm thrilled to see that my scraps are now being composted into useful material.

Is it safe to leave it outside? Will it rust? Please let me know. ?

My guitar has been out in the rain and sun for as long as I've had it (almost a year, I guess), and there are no signs of rusted metal or wear whatsoever.

A solution to the issue of the handle slipping off has been developed?

The design and construction of the house have not caused me any problems. I love the way it works.

The crank can be used in a pile of horse manure, right?

Yes that will be fine as long as it's not too hard or you need a lot of energy. It is not the most impressive tool at the moment. In my mind, the crank would save me from having to remove the packaging of the GEO BIN compost bin and turn it. So I bought one for use with that composting bin. There is a problem if you have a super deep fill of GEO BIN, as it becomes very difficult to take material out if you keep screwing in the crank too As a result, I don't use it and instead remove the button from the GEO BIN and move it to the adjacent pile of compost and then fork it back in so that it can aerate. The crank is useful, but not as helpful as I anticipated.

Selected User Reviews For LoTech Products Compost Crank Twist Compost Aerator

The craftsmanship is superb, and the price is well worth it! I am sure that someone will copy this design within weeks
5/5

This is a great idea and it works great. It is "new to us" to compost In the spirit of trying again), he bought a new compost bin and, with great zeal, created a stench-producing environment This is an emitting, maggot-filled phenomenon I have ridden 12 times This was a two-cubic-foot mass of goo, which was stomped down so that we could add more items later on. It was obvious that "aerobic" is the buzzword, and so I went in search of a compost-turning device, since that seemed to be the missing element in all previous attempts. Although I fully understand why pitchforks are unsuitable tools, I still did not appreciate how inept they are. The Compost Crank can be found beneath the bucket. In spite of our tight budget, it seemed the right move, but I balked at the cost. Please read the following carefully The item you are purchasing is a no-two To be exact- As if, handmade, as it should be In this case- Here's the thing The United States A work of art from the United States. Each of these is the work of a single family, and their care is evident Bevelled edges of the screw are neatly buffed and rounded, and the material is a gorgeous satin-appearing material Stainless steel finished with a mirror polish. What I hang on to This tag is made of recycled kraft paper and tied with jute twine. I would describe it as very boutique-like My work is yours for a look, and I want you to see mine - We should bring them to some schmancy local garden centers so they can sell Those who would like to read the reviews can do so here Leaving these outside does not rust, so they are durable and will last a lifetime. The imitations will be imported from overseas and made of chrome-plated metal There is nothing better than plated crap that sticks and rusts. It will bring you pride to own the original, and you can tell your grandchildren with pride "This is one of the last nice ones I hope it is still around one day. " A manufacturing process is the act of making something. The best part is that they work As I dug into the slime, I lifted my air supply into it, letting out a disgusting sucking noise. I Am Under-Aged On top of the layer, layers emerged. There have been no problems with the compost pile. Your product is a great piece of work!.

This is a very good trash can compactor
4/5

Using an old plastic trash can as a base, I made a DIY composter. My composting setup is made easier by using this tool instead of a compost pile and a pitchfork. It would not be possible to form a compost in a trash can using any other tool. The average time I spend doing this is about five minutes Mix things ten times to get them right. It is a very sturdy tool that remains outdoors in all kinds of weather (sun, snow, etc. ). Ideally, it would be able to turn a little more than a "screwful" each time, but unfortunately that's not the way There might be an issue with pulling too much up and spilling over if it was much bigger You may find it difficult to pull yourself There is probably no better thing you can find if you use a trash can composter!.

It's an elegantly simple tool to use
5/5

This is the first time since I can remember that I have enjoyed a good tool so much. This device has a simple design, is lightweight yet solid, and is really useful. It was a happy accident that I saw this aerator instead of another composter. Using this tool has sped up composting time for me without having to exert myself too much. Its elegant simplicity is an added bonus for me. Throughout the 11/10 As soon as I have gotten over my thrill at finding a hand tool that doesn't require any maintenance, I want to echo what other reviewers have said had no idea how wet the bottom of my compost pile had become nor did I know it had a family of mice while regularly checking the ground stakes at the bottom of the composting unit. I simply turn the cranks whenever I recall Mice have no burrowing spaces, so they are no longer a problem.

Tool that you cannot do without! It's no longer possible to have traditional open compost piles due to marauding raccoons and other vermin who have a knack for destroying things if given the chance
5/5

It's the critter that's the problem We use plastic bins because conventional garden tools can't turn them, so they don't have an adequate amount of aeration and mixing of carbon and nitrogen During this time, they became cold & miserable To be honest, it smells bad. With a LoTech compost crank, you can turn the compost! I think it's a perfect tool. It is fast and easy to use, doesn't have any moving parts to break. It is so easy to rotate the shaft when drilling down because the handle is slightly offset. It is possible to unscrew parts of the bin at a time and turn slowly if you cannot muster the strength to reach the deepest part of the bin. We were looking for a tool to take back control of the compost situation on our homestead, and we found an elegant and sturdy LoTech tool that did just the job. We have now cleaned the bins properly, and they smell much nicer.

You don't want to spend too much time turning your compost heap? Here's an innovative This tool is great for turning and aerating the contents of a compost bin, which can be difficult to turn with a fork or shovel due to the confines
5/5

Despite its weight, it is light. A simple to use system. There is no need to use much muscle power. Put the screw into the nut and pull The pile is brought up from the bottom to the top when you do that. Pull up less more than your strength allows, unscrew a bit, then screw again to bring up the lower layers a bit at a time. I am not big on strength but I have no problem bringing up the lower levels of the pile and my back and arms are fine. It was great to receive It doesn't take much effort to keep the contents of the bin.

A tool to assess quality
5/5

believe that the best inventions are those that feature simplicity of design and are The aerator has no moving parts, so you can't break any of it except for if you somehow broke the metal with the machine while operating. This is highly unlikely when the machine is I found this tool to be made of very good materials Besides its quality and ease of use, this product has a lot to offer. My tumbling composter releases the compost into a static composter, and I use this aerator to transfer the compost from there. As it turns, it lifts up quite a bit of compost with each pull and easily turns into the compost. The idea is to keep in mind that there may be aerators looking similar and made of similar materials, but I doubt they will be as effective.
