$15.00

Due to popular demand we have put together a document that outlines how our composting toilets are designed and made. The documents include

-dimensions for different size chambers based on number of people using it

-door design

-chamber design

We have spent years fine tuning our design and details based on what is easiest and what works. This is the culmination of building 11 different composting toilets and each time improving the design.

It is important that you understand that this design is only for the composting toilet element, it does not include any of the timber frame or bamboo framing that form the structure for the roof that covers these all over the ranch.
