    thank you for this helpful video. does it need to have air coming in or could you just fill up a larger plastic container/bucket and stop using it once it fills, cover it and wait two years. My thinking is I wouldn't even have to empty out a 5 gallon bucket every week. Would that work?

    Awesome video. We've been using this system for 5 years now and we wouldn't do it any other way. We purchased my Grandparents homestead deep in a WV hollar and they only had an outhouse. There is no septic tank or room for one. Grandpa said "a man shouldn't poop inside his house". I highly recommend reading the book "The Humanure Handbook" by Joseph Jenkins and follow it to the letter. It is the "Bible" for Humanure.

      Collect Whey from the bottom of cheese production in a spray bottle and spray a few pumps on the sawdust you cover each deposit in with in the bathroom. Lactic acid Bacteria LAB in whey will help this whole process and should be breaking down mediation. Bokashi is the method. I'd add biochar with sawdust and have 3 buckets with lids trapping bokashi poo for 2 weeks in buckets before pile. Also, add LAB to water dumped outside it works anaerobic and aerobic.

    I’m not sure where you learned this method of laying skins in a pan for 24 hours. I was taught by Lotta Rahme and we vigorously worked the skins in the egg/oil/soap mixture for 15-20 minutes. This was like kneading bread. Actively with your hands. What happens is the enzymes get worked into the skin and the proteins change in the skin. My results were much softer and supple fish leather. But I had also prepped my skins with liming, pickling & bating…none of these steps you did. I prefer using oak gallnut or Tara as the Leather is stronger. Good luck!

    Is there any reason why you can use a belt sander in the beginning? I can see that the scrapper will be good to work for a finial finish, but a belt sander might work really well especially if you use the flexible area of the belt sander.

    Thank you for the perfectly presented video. Straight forward and easy to grasp. I will be setting up a homestead near Algonquin Park, in Ontario Canada. I want to set up this kind of system there, even though I will have a flush toilet for my guests. Do you live in an area of the US where it is very cold in the winter? Would the pile stay warm in the winter? Would this slow down the process?

    Good stuff. I will start putting down a layer of shavings before depositing into my receptacle which is a chunk of culvert vertically situated. I also have it covered with a large (3') round piece of 3/4" plywood as I didn't want the rain to wash away any good nutrients. Also, I use a plastic garbage can instead of 5 gallon bucket, plus my o/h is outside.
