The late Ray Cooper needed a clever way of composting as his wife grew veggies in the back garden, and flowers in the front.
Ray came up with a few prototypes, kept developing them and eventually they tuned into the Earthmaker!
A composter that uses gravity to do the hard work, and... looked a little bit like a Dalek.
Leading industrial designer Michael Smythe designed the prototype and continually redesigns the Earthmaker to be more effective.
We speak to Michael.
