When you plan how to make a compost bin for your garden there are almost as many choices available to you as there are materials! There are some basics that you need to consider when you're planning, but after you deal with those you can build a compost bin out of just about anything. You can go out and buy all new lumber or wire or use what you have around the shop. You can make it fancy or simple. You can even compost without a bin or buy a premade one. You can buy a tumbler like the ones I show further on down this page or build one depending on your skills. There are as many options of building a compost bin as there are choices of what to put in it. Since one of the main precepts of composting is reusing/recycling let's concentrate on looking at how to make compost bins from what you may already have around the garden.
