New kind of outhouse (compost toilet)

In this video, the presenter walks viewers through a novel composting outhouse that uses a bucket instead of a traditional pit. The toilet is equipped with a simple interior—decor, hanging toilet paper, and a broom. The key feature is the use of sawdust to absorb waste: one scoop of sawdust is added after urination (number one) and two scoops after defecation (number two). Waste collects in the bucket, which is later emptied into a compost pile. The presenter advises that the finished compost be applied to non-edible plants, such as ornamental bushes, to ensure safety. The demonstration emphasizes the simplicity, sustainability, and practicality of this low‑tech, off‑grid sanitation solution.
