    Re: Incubator fan question

    I purchased stanley brand one and a half inch "corner braces" which look like this http://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/StanleyNational/reinforcementhardware-braces?$category$ you can screw them to the back wall of the incubator and then screw the other side into your fan (typically the fans will have holes on all four corners for screws but you only really need to use two) and this allows you to lower the fan as far from the top of the incubator as you like for proper air flow.

    Actually Deborah, this one you linked shows an optional chord with the rheostat built in. That is what I bought for the one I used in my Wine Cooler build.

    I use corner braces

    I attached the fan to the back wall of the incubator at the top (you need to make sure that air can draw and the fan does not overheat so leave a space between the fan and the top)
