em.. timber was like £230, perspex is £130..screws n bits about £90, about £90 for all electrics + heating equipment off the top of my head...

Yeah they're all spoken for lol we are actually using adapted frost protection heaters to heat them

How is the temp fluctuation on the fridgecubator?


Fans create an even temp, less than 0.5f from top to bottom difference
