This is another lil thing i'm working on at the mo as well as about 6 vivs and
a hatchling rack for some one lol!
Its an old used fridge that comes to me with all the insides taken out(by specialists) and then its down to me lol.
inside the fridge as you can see only the shelves left in.

to be honest its a fun one really,should have the glass in today and all
the trim so it looks good then its just the heating and stuff,
the fun bit is getting it to run and see how long to get to temp and how it
holds it too.
and custom paint jobs lol:paint:

i'm going to try and keep it simple so a heat mat and stat,size of the heat mat
will be trial and error i think and a fan fitted inside to circulate air and temp.

well if its running in time i'll start with the royal eggs if not the carpet eggs will
go in there lol:dance2:

thats amazing mate, I think I might do something like that, my incubator is nearly full so need something bigger.
You should rub it all down and go to work with some spray cans and lacquor (sp) and make it a funky colour.
great job.

Looks good mate. Can't imagine doing that knowing my luck something would go seriously wrong. I reckon you should spray it in either a boltgun metal colour or black would look top notch then.
