Hello all,

I wanted to make a simple bin for compost in kitchen before putting the food to the real composter in the garden. Here it is. On the lid you can add a small active charcoal filter for odors. The required size is 40x40mm. You can just cut one in a larger piece that can easily be found in kitchen components shops. The filter cap is held in place by 2x5mm round magnets.

This design is inspired from this model of countertop compost bin: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:718653

UPDATE 06/04/2020: I added the rework file with the dragon handle made by Corporalnobbs. What a great handle! :-D Do not hesitate to have a look at it! :-) (https://www.thingiverse.com/make:780590) Just be carefull, this handle version requires supports.
