I started off, in conjunction with my neighbour, buying two of those green plastic "bins" with a little door at the bottom. She gave me hers when she changed her mind about composting. I collected more than enough garden waste to fill them both. When the fence was replaced between my house and hers, there was a lot of wood left over. I asked someone to build me a compost "box" with the remaining wood. It is about four foot long, three feet deep and three feet tall. I could mix and turn the compost, and move it from bin to bin, sadly the wooden one and the two plastic ones are on opposite sides of the garden. The wooden one has the advantage of being in the sun, but the plastic ones have the warmth and shelter from a brick wall.
Should I consider emptying the half full plastic one, and then fill it with good (eg well-rotted) compost from the big wooden one? I have several large (unsightly bags of garden waste waiting to go into the largest compost heap). Either way, I think I need to start bagging up the compost, ready to be sieved.
I need the exercise, and enjoy it, but there is only so much bending, shovelling and lifting I can do. I take short breaks and do things like prune the roses, etc, and sitting down drinking tea.
Yes, I like to see how other's do their compost. I thought of joining the local Transitions group, and offer to do composting at their community garden.
There cannot be many people who volunteer for that.
