RE: Building an Incubator

I use a thermostat controlled chicken egg incubator (Styrofoam).  I
purchased it at a farm supplies store in Virginia. About $35.00 if I
remember right.  I use one of those Radio Shack indoor/outdoor thermometers
to more accurately track the temperature in the box as my fishroom
temperature varies.  I keep the box between 79 and 80 degrees and my hatch
times are more reliable.

Now that my kids have grown and are off living their lives, my wife has been
hounding me to build a fish room and move all my aquariums situated around
the house into one room.  (Nobody else has this problem... right?) I was
reviewing  old JAKAs, when I came across the March/April 1986 issue
regarding Karl Doering's article on building an incubator.  The article
contains some good information; however, I'd like thoughts from other AKA
members on what they have done.  I am especially interested in theremostat
control.  What works for you?  Got a newer design?
