Thanks for mentioning waste/toilets. A good friend of mine and I have an ongoing conversation about ‘improvements’ we’ve made to your basic bucket toilet. ;)
Both of us were big campers back in the day, so it’s been a life-long learning curve. ;) And I can attest that digging Army latrines in the field is every so much fun, LOL!

When I get my final design down to something along the lines of a Litter Genie that you use for cats, I’m gonna be rich, Rich, RICH! ;)
And yeah digging a hole in the back yard is not the best way to deal with it.
It is a way but not the best or most comfortable.
