Plant meal Blender

My invention helps reuse old food scraps and fertilizes plants. The mechanism uses a blender to break down compost and feed it through a chute into a potted plant. The plant takes the nutrients left from the food and uses it to grow. The pot is directly connected to the chute and receives compost with the help of hydraulics. The Plant meal Blender is especially helpful to gardeners who don't want to buy fertilizers and use a more economic and sustainable method of composting.

Your invention is such an excellent resource for gardeners Eric. Composting is a valuable thing to do to reduce waste and nourish plants. I love that your invention takes care of everything in a flowing, organised way. This is super convenient. And your drawing is beautiful too! Keep up the great work!

Based on Eric's work, I try to understand its function and role. And try to start modeling, I used Fusion360 software to make a rough model that possesses a similar structure can be made Eric's work.
I took the modeling and rendering and recorded a video of the process, check it out!
